sportsApr 24, 202618226

The Atlanta Falcons selected Avieon Terrell, cornerback from Clemson, with the No. 48 pick in Round 2 of the 2026 NFL Draft. The pick reunites Avieon with his older brother A.J. Terrell in Atlanta's secondary and gives the team a corner WHO scouts describe as feisty with quick hips and the ability to play both inside and outside. Terrell entered the draft as a consensus mid-round prospect, ranked 21 on Arif Hasan's Consensus Board, and projects to contribute immediately in the Falcons' nickel and perimeter packages, boosting defensive depth and versatility.
