More intriguing chapters get added to the Saints-Falcons rivalry when these teams square off in Week 4.
and Atlanta Falcons are set to face off for the 111th time in their storied rivalry. You can't get more evenly matched from a historical perspective. This series is tied at 55 victories apiece, with the Falcons holding a narrow 28-27 advantage when these teams play in Atlanta.
Onyemata, 31, played his first seven NFL seasons with the Saints after being chosen in the fourth round of the 2016 NFL Draft out of Manitoba in Canada. A native of Nigeria, he was a raw player with tremendous physical gifts who develop quickly. New Orleans selected Elliss with a seventh-round choice in the 2019 NFL Draft out of Idaho. After his rookie year was cut short by a knee injury, he'd be a complementary part of the defense for the next two seasons. In 2022, he'd have a breakout year.
This is actually the first experience on either side of the Saints-Falcons feud for both New Orleans offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak and Atlanta QB Kirk Cousins. However, both are extremely familiar with each other.
