In 2021, the Atlanta Falcons decided to include Cordarelle Patterson to bolster their offense. Two seasons later, the NFC South squad has invented a new position in football for their versatile player ahead of the 2023 NFL campaign.

The Atlanta Falcons truly need to have a completely different season compared to last year’s. They haven’t been able to put together a decent campaign since their heartbreaking defeat in Super Bowl LI against the New England Patriots, which was a significant setback for them.

Cordarelle Patterson is one of the most experienced players in the roster of the Falcons. The 32-year-old is set to participate in his 11th NFL season, but the team’s fans don’t know how staff will use him this year.

The former 29th overall pick entered the league as a wide receiver. However, he has also tried other positions like running back or punt returner, so that’s why the Falcons have created a new position for him: the Joker.
