Top Falcons News

  • Falcons' Mike Hughes: Out for Week 16

    Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said that Hughes (ankle) will miss Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

    The veteran cornerback has already been ruled out for the Week 16 contest after sustaining an ankle sprain in Thursday's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers. Hughes is a crucial part of the Falcons secondary, recording 51 total tackles and seven passes defensed and one interception in 12 appearances this season.

  • Falcons' Drake London: Optimism for Week 16 return

    Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said Monday that he's "very hopeful" London (knee) will return to the lineup for Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports.

    London has missed four consecutive games due to a PCL sprain in his left knee, in which span he hasn't practiced. Morris indicated that handling on-field activity will be crucial for London to return in Week 16, meaning his status at Wednesday's practice will need to be monitored closely. In London's absence during last week's win over the Buccaneers on Thursday Night Football, TE Kyle Pitts broke out for a career-best 11-166-3 receiving line on 12 targets. If the No. 1 wideout does manage to retake the field on the road against Arizona on Sunday, however, he will figure to immediately resume operating as Kirk Cousins' top target in the passing game.

  • Falcons' Brandon Dorlus: Notches sack in Week 15

    Dorlus recorded two total tackles (one solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Thursday's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers.

    The second-year pro from Oregon returned from a one-game absence Thursday and made his impact felt, taking down Baker Mayfield in the third quarter. Dorlus has appeared in 13 games for the Falcons this season, recording 25 total tackles, including 7.0 sacks. He's expected to remain one of Atlanta's top pass rushers in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals.

  • Falcons' James Pearce: Extends sack streak Thursday

    Pearce recorded three total tackles (two solo), including 2.0 sacks, and two passes defensed during Thursday's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers.

    Pearce was one of five Falcons to get after the quarterback during Thursday's divisional win, bringing down Baker Mayfield in the first and second quarters. The 2025 first-round pick from Tennessee is beginning to emerge as a potential Defensive Rookie of the Year candidate, having recorded at least one full sack in each of Atlanta's last six games. His next opportunity to rush the passer will likely come in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals.

  • Falcons' Dee Alford: Picks off Mayfield in Week 15

    Alford recorded three total tackles (all solo) and one interception in Thursday's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers.

    Alford nabbed a crucial fourth-quarter interception that set up a Falcons touchdown and pulled the game within one score Thursday. He's been an integral part of Atlanta's secondary this season, tallying 56 total tackles, 10 passes defensed, including two interceptions, and one forced fumble across 13 appearances. The Tusculum product is expected to continue operating as the team's top slot corner in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals.

  • Falcons' Xavier Watts: Leading tackler in win

    Watts posted nine total tackles (five solo) during Thursday's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers.

    Watts led Atlanta's defense in total tackles, tallying nine or more stops for the third time this season in Thursday's divisional win. The 2025 third-round pick from Notre Dame has had an impressive rookie campaign, recording 79 total tackles and seven passes defensed, including three interceptions, through 14 appearances. He's expected to continue starting alongside Jessie Bates in the Falcons' secondary in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals.

  • Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Solid outing in win

    Elliss tallied six total tackles (all solo) during Thursday's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers.

    The 30-year-old linebacker has now posted six or more stops in eight of the Falcons' last nine games. Elliss has appeared in all 14 of Atlanta's contests this season, recording a team-leading 94 total tackles, including 3.5 sacks, four passes defensed, with one interception, and one forced fumble. He's likely to remain one of the Falcons' top tacklers in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals.

  • Falcons' Jessie Bates: Logs eight stops vs. Tampa Bay

    Bates recorded eight total tackles (six solo) during Thursday night's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers.

    After recording just six total tackles in the Falcons' previous two games, Bates returned to his usual output in Thursday's win. The veteran safety finished with the second-most tackles on Atlanta's defense, trailing Xavier Watts' nine-stop performance. Bates has played in all 14 of the Falcons' games this season, recording 85 total tackles, four passes defensed, including two interceptions, and one forced fumble. He's expected to remain one of the team's top defensive playmakers in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals.

  • Falcons' Dylan Drummond: Held without a catch Week 15

    Drummond was not targeted during Thursday's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers.

    Drummond wasn't officially recorded as finishing with a target, though Kirk Cousins did look his way on an attempted two-point conversion in the fourth quarter. He'll reprise a similar depth role at wide receiver in Week 16 against the Cardinals.

  • Falcons' Charlie Woerner: Two grabs vs. Tampa Bay

    Woerner caught both of his targets for 12 yards in Thursday night's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers.

    Woerner wasn't targeted in either of the Falcons' last two games, but he finished with the fifth-most receiving yards on the team during Thursday night's win. The 28-year-old has appeared in all 14 of Atlanta's contests this season, catching seven of eight targets for 45 yards across 417 offensive snaps. He's expected to remain a depth option in the team's tight-end corps in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals.
