A Lasting Legacy: Honoring team photographer Jimmy Cribb

Atlanta Falcons team photographer Jimmy Cribb worked his first game in 1979, and went on to cover more than 750 games over his career. Though he passed away in April of 2022, his legacy lives on in his photos, his impact on players and staff, and now, the newly-minted Jimmy Cribb Media Room at the Falcons headquarters. Take a look as we pay homage to the man who preserved the Falcons' visual history for an impressive 39 years.
