The Atlanta Falcons are feeling confident ahead of the new NFL season.

For the first time in two decades, the franchise have sold out their season-ticket packages before training camp.

Alongside this, they enjoyed their best-ever March sales following the signing of free agent Kirk Cousins.

As well as bringing in more fans, old ones are making an extra effort to stay.

The Falcons have also posted their highest season-ticket retention rate in 20 years.

Under the leadership of Raheem Morris, hope is infectious across Atlanta as they look to post a winning record for the first time since 2017.

They are the favourites to win the NFC South and expectations are the highest they have been since reaching the Super Bowl seven years ago.

Falcons president Greg Beadles said: “We’ve listened to our fans, implemented their feedback and invested in creating a world-class fan experience.

“It is evident there is a lot of great energy heading into the season, and our fans and players are ready to go.”

General manager Terry Fontenot added: “I know we’re going to have the best home-field advantage in the NFL for our nine home games, and however many home playoff games we have.”
