Greetings, Falcoholics! It’s the start of a new week as the Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Bay Buccaneers both held their first practices. The Falcons are fresh off an exciting win in Week 7, and they look to remain healthy as they have a divisional contest with the Bucs on Sunday.
Let’s take a look at the first injury reports of the week!

It’s another semi-lengthly injury report for the Falcons to kick off the week. The most notable injuries are corner Billy Bowman Jr., linebacker Divine Deablo, and running back Brian Robinson who all missed practice on Wednesday and did not play in Week 7. Before anyone panics, Wednesday’s practices typically just give us an idea where players are and don’t necessarily predict availability that week. We will certainly know more following Thursday’s practice and heading into Friday.
For Tampa Bay, getting quarterback Baker Mayfield back who had an injured right thumb was huge in Week 7. He should be good-to-go against the Falcons this weekend. An injury to keep an eye on is running back Kenneth Gainwell who has a hip injury.
