The Atlanta Falcons announced on Tuesday the release of defensive players Drake Jackson and Jared Ivey.

The roster moves come as the team continues to shape its lineup for the remainder of the NFL season. Ivey, who wore number 51, saw action in the Falcons' game against the San Francisco 49ers on October 25 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

No official reason was given for the cuts, and it is unclear whether either player will be claimed off waivers or signed to the practice squad.
