What happened: Falcons defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich called Gervon Dexter both big and explosive, citing his foot speed. The comment came as Atlanta evaluates its new defensive tackle after acquiring him from Chicago.
Why it matters: The endorsement points to the role Atlanta wants Dexter to fill inside Jeff Ulbrich's defense. The Falcons' deal for Dexter cost cornerback Clark Phillips III and a 2027 fifth-round pick, making his fit central to the move's value.
By the numbers: Dexter is listed at 6-foot-6 and 326 pounds.
What to watch: Watch whether Ulbrich's praise translates into a defined role for Dexter in Atlanta's defensive rotation.
