Upgrading the pass rush was a primary goal for the Atlanta Falcons this offseason. After all, they haven't had a player reach 10 sacks in a single season since 2016, marking the longest active drought in the NFL.

Veteran Leonard Floyd and rookie first-round picks Jalon Walker and James Pearce Jr. are already making an impact for the Falcons, who had their first practice of training camp in pads on Tuesday.

The Falcons overhauled their defense in the offseason. They're hoping players with "a natural edge" lead to a change on the field, too.
