The Falcons have reached an injury settlement with RB Antone Smith and have released him. Smith was a home run hitter for the Falcons last year, but injuries and age have sealed his fate in Atlanta.

Fantasy Impact:
The hamstring injury must be worse than expected, and the Falcons aren't going to play around with a near 30 year old back when they have young talent. Smith may find work elsewhere if he gets healthy soon enough.
