Falcons training camp: Highlight roundup from practice No. 6
The Atlanta Falcons closed out the month of July with their sixth training camp practice on Wednesday. With their preseason opener against the Miami Dolphins a little over a week away, the competition is heating up in Flowery Branch. Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts continues to be a matchup nightmare, but the defense is starting to hold its own.
Cornerbacks A.J. Terrell and Antonio Hamilton stepped up while wide receivers Darnell Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud each made highlight-reel catches. Check out the best clips we could find from Wednesday's practice in our latest highlight roundup below:
