The Atlanta Falcons endured an active day Tuesday, finishing their second wave of roster cuts to trim the team from 90 players down to 53. It was, as Falcons coach Raheem Morris often says, one of the most difficult days of the year.

And while Wednesday brings similar activity, it does so in a more celebratory manner -- Atlanta will build its practice squad, which means 16 new signings and a bevy of players getting another shot to live out their dream.

Atlanta Falcons on SI will provide live updates as the Falcons fill out their practice squad, with the window opening at noon Wednesday.
