FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. —The Atlanta Falcons had a lengthy injury report to begin the week with 12 players limited on Wednesday, but there were some positive developments on the team's report from their practice on Thanksgiving.
Wide receiver Darnell Mooney, cornerback Dee Alford and linebacker Troy Andersen all logged a full practice on Thursday after participating in a limited fashion to start the week. Additionally, cornerback Kevin King, linebacker JD Bertrand, wide receiver Casey Washington and tight end Charlie Woerner all practiced fully on Thursday, a crucial step in their return from the league's concussion protocol.
The report wasn't all positive, however. Atlanta's top wide receiver, Drake London, appeared for on it for the first time after he was limited with a hip injury. Kicker Younghoe Koo was also limited with a right hip injury, a noteworthy detail for the right-legged kicker. Pro Bowl guard Chris Lindstrom was also limited for the first time this week due to a knee injury. Lindstrom was limited on Wednesday and Thursday in the lead-up to Atlanta's game against Denver, but he practiced fully on Friday and started on Sunday.
We'll continue to monitor the team's key injuries throughout the week as Atlanta attempts to get healthy ahead of a key matchup.
