Falcons lose to Cardinals 24-14 in MBS preseason debut

Fans are seen in the concourse level of Mercedes-Benz Stadium during a 2017 Atlanta Falcons preseason game against the Arizona Cardinals.

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the Atlanta Falcons announced in an email to season ticket members Wednesday they will have a limited capacity of up to 10,000 to 20,0000 fans at Mercedes-Benz Stadium for home games during the 2020 NFL season.

Mercedes-Benz Stadium's reduced capacity is in keeping with state and local requirements as well as the NFL and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) social distancing guidelines regarding the coronavirus.
