The Falcons re-signed Kwiatkoski on Thursday, Tori McElhaney of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kwiatkoski was released ahead of Tuesday's 53-man roster deadline, but he's since returned to team after the Falcons opened up numerous roster spots by placing a plethora of players on IR. The veteran linebacker is expected to share backup duties with rookie Troy Andersen behind the starting duo of Rashaan Evans and Mykal Walker.

The Falcons released Kwiatkoski on Tuesday, Jeff Schultz of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Kwiatkoski signed a one-year deal with Atlanta in May after appearing in eight games for the Raiders in 2021. He was expected to compete for a depth role at inside linebacker, but the return of Deion Jones made Kwiatkoski the odd man out. The 2016 fourth-round pick will look to find a new NFL opportunity before the start of the 2022 campaign.

Kwiatkoski (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Kwiatkoski came into the contest with an ankle issue, so there's concern that he may have aggravated his previous injury. The backup linebacker mostly operates on special teams, so his absence shouldn't have an impact on the Raiders' defensive rotations.
