The Falcons waived Allison on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allison joined Atlanta this offseason after two disappointing seasons in Detroit, but he finds himself among a wave of cuts ahead of Tuesday's 80-man roster deadline. The 28-year-old caught six touchdowns across four seasons in Green Bay, but he has yet to find any NFL success since.

Allison signed with the Falcons on Monday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allison heads to Atlanta coming off of a disappointing tenure with the Lions over the past two seasons. The 6-foot-3 wide receiver did not register a single reception while seeing just two targets over three games this past season after opting out of the 2020 campaign due to COVID concerns. Allison now joins an influx of receiver talent for Atlanta and likely will compete with fellow veterans Damiere Byrd and KhaDarel Hodge for a depth role heading into the 2022 season.

Allison re-signed with the Lions' practice squad Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Allison has played in three games with Detroit this season, but hasn't caught a pass across two targets. In his four-year stint with the Packers prior to the Lions (2016-2019), Allison recorded 1,045 yards in 46 games. The 27-year-old was waived by the Lions on Tuesday after his two weeks of practice-squad eligibility was up, and is likely to be promoted to the active roster before the end of the season.

Allison (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's matchup with the Eagles.
EDGE Analysis
Allison was active for the Lions last two contests, but he failed to record a catch on just two targets. KhaDarel Hodge will likely continue to operate as Detroit's No. 3 wideout behind Kalif Raymond and Amon-Ra St. Brown.

Allison was targeted twice but did not record a catch during Sunday's 28-19 loss to the Rams.
EDGE Analysis
In his second game of the season, Allison shared the No. 3 role at wide receiver with KhaDarel Hodge while Kalif Raymond and Amon-Ra St. Brown clearly ran as the top dogs. However, it will probably take a lot more for Allison to become a worthwhile fantasy contributor with Jared Goff after he failed to do so with Aaron Rodgers from 2016 to 2019.

The Lions signed Allison to the active roster from the practice squad Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Allison handled 12 offensive snaps (20 percent) and 15 special-teams snaps (60 percent) during Week 6's loss to the Bengals, though he wasn't targeted in the contest. With Quintez Cephus (collarbone) out for the season and Tyrell Williams (concussion) still not back from IR, Allison now looks set to play a similar depth role versus the Rams in Week 7.
