New York terminated the contract of Gono (neck) on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The Giants signed tackle Eric Smith in a corresponding move. Gono was believed to have suffered a career-ending neck injury before he was placed on the exempt/left squad list Wednesday, and this transaction may unfortunately indicate that those concerns were well-grounded.

Gono and the Falcons mutually agreed to part ways Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gono's contract was set to expire at the start of the league year, but by being waived now, he'll have more time to negotiate a new deal elsewhere. Rapoport reports that Gono is fully recovered from the shoulder surgery that caused him to miss the entire 2021 season, so he should garner interest from teams in search of offensive line help.

Gono (undisclosed) will miss all of training camp, D. Orlando Ledbetter of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gono, who is currently on the PUP list, will hope to heal up in time for Atlanta's Sep. 12 season opener against the Eagles. If Gono's unable to return by then, offseason addition Josh Andrews and rookie fourth-round pick Drew Dalman are the leading candidates to fill in at left guard.

Gono (undisclosed) showed up to training camp with a neck brace after undergoing surgery during the offseason, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
It is still not clear what exactly is ailing Gono as there has not been an update on his status. If healthy at the start of the season, the 25-year-old will be a candidate to start at left guard. However, if he misses an extended period of training camp, he may be regulated to a versatile backup duty as he has extensive action at both tackle and guard.
