The Atlanta Falcons released their first injury report for Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and it was another long list to kick off Week 8. Four players, including linebacker Divine Deablo (forearm) and edge rusher Za'Darius Smith (rest), did not practice on Wednesday.
Defensive back Billy Bowman Jr. and running back Brian Robinson Jr. were held out due to hamstring injuries. Both players missed Sunday's win over the San Francisco 49ers and will need to show some progress to have a chance to play against the Buccaneers.
Six other players, including right tackle Jawaan Taylor, wide receiver Olamide Zacheauas (shoulder) and edge rusher Samson Ebukam (hamstring), were limited on Wednesday. Rookie cornerback Avieon Terrell was also
limited after sitting out in Week 7 due to an illness.
