2024 Fantasy Outlook
A 2022 UDFA, Alford is working as the Falcons' top slot CB in 2024 with Mike Hughes moving outside. Alford also has punt-return experience but likely wouldn't be a primary return man if he's operating as a starter on defense. Read Past Outlooks
Sets new career highs
Alford finished with 83 tackles (61 solo), including 1.0 sacks, 11 pass breakups and a forced fumble, all career-best marks, across 16 games in 2024.
ANALYSIS
The slot cornerback also played on a majority of the defensive snaps in 12 of his 16 games. In 2022, Alford signed a three-year, $2.57 million contract with the Falcons. Now, he'll become a restricted free agent, meaning Atlanta can match any offer from another team.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
A 2019 undrafted product out of Tusculum, Alford finally got an NFL opportunity in 2022 and made the most of it by carving out a rotational role following multiple injuries to Atlanta's secondary. He recorded 25 tackles, seven pass defenses, one interception and 0.5 sacks in 16 appearances (238 defensive snaps), but Alford will be competing for a roster spot again after the Falcons added numerous talented players to its CB corps this offseason.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Pushing for starting role
Alford has worked ahead of Mike Hughes as the Falcons' primary nickel corner throughout OTAs, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Alford has impressed the coaching staff and appears to be running ahead of Hughes, who signed with the Falcons in free agency after being part of a porous Lions secondary in 2022. Atlanta's coaching staff has praised Alford's progress, and the former CFL player is poised for a bigger role after racking up 25 tackles, one interception and seven passes defensed as a reserve for the Falcons in his first NFL campaign last year.
