WATCH: Damiere Byrd takes Marcus Mariota pass for 75 yard touchdown

Byrd made his first catch in red and black count.

The Falcons have stuck to the ground through the first half of the Bengals game. At least until Arthur Smith took a deep shot.

Marcus Mariota made a great deep pass to Damiere Byrd, who had yet to catch a pass for the Falcons in the first six weeks of the season. He showed off his speed for an electric touchdown before the end of the half.
