Falcons sign punter Dustin Colquitt to 53-man roster, Cameron Nizialek status seems clearer

You know when Younghoe Koo is called upon to punt the ball, something has gone horribly wrong. That’s where the Falcons found themselves on Sunday due to the random and unexpected injury to punter Cameron Nizialek.

Nizialek had actually performed well lately after a very rough outing in week 2 against the Buccaneers. That performance was so bad the team signed Dustin Colquitt to their practice squad as an insurance policy. Well, it looks like they’re calling in that policy as the team is set to bring Colquitt up to the 53-man roster.

Falcons are signing P Dustin Colquitt to the 53-man roster from their practice squad, per source.
