Ronnie Harrison signed with the Atlanta Falcons as a free agent, adding a veteran safety with seven NFL seasons on his resume. A 2018 third-round pick, Harrison has appeared in 84 games with 48 starts across Jacksonville, Cleveland and Indianapolis, compiling 245 tackles, 10 TFL, 6.5 sacks, seven interceptions and 25 passes defended along the way. He spent the 2024 season with the Colts and has yet to land with another club until now.

Harrison now teams with DeMarcco Hellams on a Falcons roster that already features Alabama connections. While his 2024 dip to two tackles in 10 games suggests he isn’t a plug-and-play fantasy option, his veteran presence could help stabilize Atlanta’s safety group and push Hellams for snaps. Fantasy managers should monitor spring camp and preseason reps to gauge whether Harrison earns a starting or heavy-sub role and whether he contributes on special teams, which would bolster his fantasy floor.

Overall, the signing boosts depth and upside for Atlanta’s secondary depth chart, especially if injuries strike. The Alabama angle is notable for roster familiarity, but immediate fantasy impact hinges on how the Falcons deploy Harrison and Hellams in a run-first, versatile defense this season.
