The 2026 NFL trade deadline has passed but the Atlanta Falcons weren't done yet apparently. According to The Athletic's Jonathan Jones, the Falcons traded starting center Ryan Neuzil to the Baltimore Ravens for guard Andrew Vorhees and a 2028 sixth-round pick just minutes before the deadline.
Neuzil, a former undrafted free agent, is in the final year of his contract and will give the Ravens some much-needed help at center. Since the Falcons are likely out for the playoff hunt at 3-6, they likely felt better about adding draft capital and another depth piece up front.
Vorhees, 27, was selected in the seventh round of the 2023 NFL draft out of USC. While he was listed as the Ravens' backup right guard, Vorhees started all 17 games for the team
in 2025.
The Falcons will likely turn to veteran center Corey Levin to take over as the starter following the Neuzil trade. Levin signed a one-year deal with the team in free agency, and despite spending most of his career as a backup, he has seven starts under his belt.
Aside from trading Neuzil and Jessie Bates, the Falcons also signed kicker Jake Moody, released Nick Folk and made a few changes to their practice squad. The team released defensive end Drake Jackson, while signing center Gus Hartwig and safety Delarrin Turner-Yell to the practice squad.
