JD Bertrand - Will be sidelined Week 9 Bertrand (concussion) won't play against the Cowboys on Sunday, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Bertrand was concussed in Sunday's win over Tampa Bay and hasn't cleared the NFL's five-step protocol. The linebacker logged 73 percent of the team's defensive snaps in Week 5 but has otherwise played primarily on special teams. Bertrand's absence Sunday could pave the way for Rashaan Evans, who was signed to the 53-player roster Friday, to see some work on defense immediately.

Chris Lindstrom - Questionable for Week 9 Lindstrom (knee) is questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Cowboys, William McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Lindstrom suffered a knee injury in the team's Week 8 win over the Buccaneers, but the team opted to keep him on the sidelines even though he was cleared to return to the game. The 27-year-old seems likely to play in Week 9, but if he is ultimately ruled out, Kyle Hinton would likely draw the start at right guard versus Dallas.

Ruke Orhorhoro - Placed on IR Orhorhoro (ankle) was placed on injured reserve by the Falcons on Friday, Will McFadden of the team's official website reports.

Impact Orhorhoro suffered the ankle injury in Atlanta's 31-26 win over the Buccaneers in Week 8 and he will now be forced to miss at least the team's next four games as he recovers. In his absence, Ta'Quon Graham is a candidate to step into a larger role on the Falcons' defensive line.

2024 NFL Week 9 Best Bets: Back favorites to win, cover

Ruke Orhorhoro - Out in Week 9 Orhorhoro (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cowboys, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact The 2024 second-round pick from Clemson recorded one total tackle across 15 total snaps (12 defensive and three on special teams) before exiting the Falcons' Week 8 win over the Buccaneers with an ankle injury. He didn't practice all week and is now in line to miss the fifth game of his young career. Expect Ta'Quon Graham to see increased snaps as the Falcons' top rotational defensive end in Orhorhoro's stead.

Troy Andersen - Questionable for Sunday Andersen (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cowboys, William McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Andersen upgraded to full participation Friday after beginning the Falcons' week of practice with back-to-back limited sessions. However, his questionable designation suggests that he's still dealing with his knee injury in some capacity and could miss his fifth consecutive game Sunday. If Andersen can't play through the issue in Week 9, expect Nate Landman to serve as one of Atlanta's top inside linebackers.

Justin Simmons - Logs full practice Thursday Simmons (hamstring) was a full practice participant Thursday, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Simmons was unable to play during the Falcons' Week 8 win over the Buccaneers due to a hamstring injury. The injury limited him in practice Wednesday, but he was able to practice without restrictions Thursday, and barring any setbacks he should be good to go against Dallas on Sunday. Across seven regular-season games, Simmons has logged 28 tackles (15 solo), three pass breakups and one interception.

Kaden Elliss - Past knee injury Elliss (knee) was a full practice participant Thursday, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact A knee injury limited Elliss' practice participation Wednesday, but the 2019 seventh-round pick was able to practice without restrictions Thursday. Barring any setbacks, Elliss should be able to suit up against the Cowboys on Sunday. Elliss has logged 65 combined tackles through the first eight games of the regular season, which is most on the Falcons and 14th-most in the NFL.

Falcons vs. Cowboys Injury Report – Week 9, 2024

Kaden Elliss - Dealing with knee issue Elliss (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Elliss had a monster performance in the Falcons' Week 8 win over the Buccaneers, tallying 11 total tackles across 68 defensive snaps. However, it now appears the Idaho product picked up a knee injury in the process. If Elliss is unable to suit up for the Falcons' Week 9 matchup against the Cowboys, expect JD Bertrand (concussion) or Nate Landman to see increased work with Atlanta's first-team defense.

Troy Andersen - Opens week with limited work Andersen (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Andersen has missed each of the Falcons' last four games due to a knee injury sustained in the team's Week 4 win over the Saints. He practiced in a limited fashion last week and has begun Atlanta's new week of practice as a limited participant once again. His participation Thursday and Friday is likely the best indication of whether he can return in Week 9, when the Falcons host the Cowboys.

JD Bertrand - Doesn't practice Wednesday Bertrand (concussion) didn't practice Wednesday, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Bertrand played 37 total snaps (16 defensive and 21 on special teams) and recorded two total tackles in Sunday's win over Tampa Bay; however, it appears he picked up a concussion in the process. He'll need to clear the NFL's five-step protocol in order to suit up in Week 9, when the Falcons host the Cowboys.

Chris Lindstrom - Misses Wednesday's practice Lindstrom (knee) didn't practice Wednesday, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Lindstrom was cleared to return to Sunday's win over the Buccaneers after exiting earlier with a knee injury, so Wednesday's DNP is likely precautionary. However, if the 27-year-old offensive lineman is unable to upgrade to limited work either Thursday or Friday, he could miss Week 9's matchup against the Cowboys.
