It’s a loaded injury report for the Falcons to start off the week. Dee Alford, James Smith-Williams, Antonio Hamilton Sr., Charlie Woerner, and Ta’Quon Graham are all names to keep an eye on this week, as they missed practice on Wednesday. Coach Raheem Morris has indicated that Graham and Smith-Williams could miss time.
Another name to keep an eye on is Kirk Cousins, who has popped up on the team’s practice injury report for the first time this season. Cousins was limited on Wednesday with right elbow and right shoulder injuries.
Everyone practiced in some capacity for the Broncos to start their week. We’ll keep an eye on the health of both team’s heading into Thursday.
