The Atlanta Falcons released wide receiver Harry Douglas on Friday, the team announced

Douglas was productive in his time with the Falcons, often filling in as a starter in place of Julio Jones or Roddy White while they battled injuries. Douglas's release is almost certainly a cost-cutting move; cutting him will save the Falcons $3.5 million against the salary cap. 

Douglas is a solid third or fourth receiver and shouldn't have much difficulty catching on with a new team.
