Falcons' Dee Alford: Makes impact for Atlanta
Alford tallied 67 total tackles (55 solo), including 2.0 sacks, 13 passes defensed, including three interceptions, and one forced fumble over 16 regular-season games in 2025.
The Tusculum product enjoyed one of the best seasons of his career in 2025, setting personal highs in passes defensed, sacks and interceptions. Additionally, Alford was a key portion of the Falcons' secondary, finishing first on the team in passes defensed, tying for second in interceptions and ranking sixth in total tackles. Set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, Alford could be in line for a decent contract following another impressive season in Atlanta.

Falcons' Dee Alford: Racks up 10 tackles in return
Alford tallied 10 tackles (nine solo), a defensed pass and a fumble recovery Sunday in a 24-10 Week 12 win over the Saints.
Alford didn't play in Week 11 due to a concussion but was cleared in time to suit up Sunday. He ended up leading the Falcons in tackles while reaching the double-digit mark for the first time this season. Alford also had a fumble recovery early in the game that led to a Falcons field goal. The fourth-year cornerback will likely see a larger role moving forward with Billy Bowman out for the season due to a torn Achilles.

Falcons' Dee Alford: Full practice participant Thursday
Alford (concussion) practiced in full Thursday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Alford suffered a concussion in Week 10 against Indianapolis and didn't play against Carolina this past Sunday. He began prep this week with a limited session, then upgraded to full Thursday. Alford thus seems in line to return to action in Week 12 against the Saints, though he'll first need to clear concussion protocol if he hasn't done so already.

Alford sat out Sunday's game versus the Panthers because of a concussion he sustained in Week 10 at Indianapolis, and he's still not back up to full speed as Atlanta begins Week 12 prep.
