The Facts: The Falcons waived second-year man Milner on Tuesday. Team spokesman Reggie Roberts said the Falcons may replace Milner on the roster as early as Wednesday.
Diehards Line:Milner, a fourth-round draft pick from Georgia in 2007, had been on the inactive list for the team's first two games after falling behind Ben Hartsock and newcomer Justin Peelle. Milner caught nine passes for 50 yards in eight games last season. He suffered an ankle injury that caused him to be placed on injured reserve on Nov. 13.
