The Falcons capped off the NFL’s trade deadline with a buzzer beater, sending starting center Ryan Neuzil to the Baltimore Ravens. In exchange, the Falcons receive guard Andrew Vorhees and a 2028 sixth-round pick, according to Jonathan Jones of The Athletic.
Neuzil is in his fifth season with the Falcons, the only team he’s played for since he entered the league as an undrafted free agent out of Appalachian State. He started all 17 games at center for Atlanta in 2025, and has started all nine games for Atlanta this season.

According to Pro Football Focus, Neuzil has committed one penalty this season, and he’s allowed one sack. He signed a two-year, $9.5 million extension in 2025, and is in the final year of his contract. I’m not sure I’d move my starting center midseason, but if the Falcons weren’t planning to re-sign him, it makes more sense to get something in return while they can.
Vorhees is listed as the backup right guard on the Ravens’ depth chart, behind Vega Ioane. He’s played 81 offensive snaps with the Ravens so far this season, all of them at right guard, and has allowed one quarterback hit and four hurries.
Corey Levin is the Falcons’ backup center, and we’ll hear from Kevin Stefanski tomorrow before practice about the team’s plans and expectations for the center position going forward.
