Gabriel was a huge bright spot for a surprising Falcons squad, who blazed through the playoffs until they met the Patriots in the Super Bowl. The Falcons dominated the first half, jumping out to a 28-3 lead before eventually allowing the Patriots to come back and win 34-28.
Gabriel had a total of 44 catches in the 2016 season. Six of those catches went for touchdowns. He was known for his versatility and big play potential out of his slot position.
