ATLANTA FALCONS NEWS

Jase McClellan - Inactive for Week 10 McClellan (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Saints.

Impact After making his NFL regular-season debut against the Seahawks in Week 7, McClellan has been a healthy scratch for three straight games. The rookie remains behind Bijan Robinson, Tyler Allgeier and Avery Williams on the Falcons' running back depth chart.

Drake London - Will play vs. Saints London (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Saints.

Impact Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said Friday that he "felt good" about London's chances of playing in Week 10, and Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Saturday afternoon that the wideout was expected to suit up despite his questionable designation, so this doesn't come as a major surprise. With Marshon Lattimore traded to Washington this week, the Saints' secondary will be without one of its top players over the last decade. London has topped 100 receiving yards in only one game this season, but he has six touchdowns through nine appearances.

Khalid Kareem - Elevated for Week 10 The Falcons elevated Kareem (undisclosed) from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Tori McElhaney of the team's official site reports.

Impact It's the first elevation to the active roster for Kareem this season, who signed with the Falcons' practice squad in late August. He spent most of the 2023 regular season on the Bears' practice squad but did play in Week 8 against the Chargers, during which he registered one solo tackle and one pass defense while playing 24 snaps on defense. Kareem will give the Falcons additional depth at linebacker for Sunday's game against New Orleans after JD Bertrand was ruled out due to a concussion.

Drew Dalman - Won't play Sunday Dalman (ankle) has been downgraded from questionable to out for Sunday's game against the Saints, Toni McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Dalman was able to practice in full all week, but he still isn't quite ready to return from an ankle injury he suffered in late September. His next chance at suiting up will be Week 11 against Denver on Sunday, Nov. 17.

Chris Blair - Elevated from practice squad Blair was elevated from the Falcons' practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Tori McElhaney of the team's official site reports.

Impact It's the second time Blair has been elevated to the active roster this season. He played in Week 1 against the Steelers, during which he logged six snaps on special teams and did not record a stat. Blair will likely reprise that role Sunday against the Saints and is unlikely to see snaps on offense.

Drake London - Likely set for Sunday London, who is listed as questionable Sunday with a hip injury, is expected to play against the Saints, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact This was the sentiment echoed Friday following the Falcons' final injury report of the week, so it's good to hear the star wide receiver hasn't suffered any setbacks over the weekend. Expect Atlanta to officially confirm London's status ahead of the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

JD Bertrand - Out for Sunday Bertrand (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Saints.

Impact Bertrand has yet to pass through the NFL's five step concussion protocol and is now in line to miss his second consecutive game Sunday. Rashaan Evans is expected to see increased work on the Falcons' special-teams unit with Bertrand sidelined in Week 10.

Drake London - Looking good for Sunday Falcons coach Raheem Morris said after Friday's practice that he "felt good" about London (hip) playing Sunday against the Saints, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact London is listed as questionable for the game after being a limited practice participant throughout the week. The optimism for Morris is a good sign but doesn't necessarily preclude a game-time decision ahead of the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff this Sunday.

Grady Jarrett - Cleared to play Sunday Jarrett (Achilles) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Saints and is expected to play.

Impact Jarrett was injured last Sunday against Dallas but won't miss any games. The 31-year-old has logged 30 tackles (19 solo), including 2.5 sacks, on 65 percent of the defensive snaps this season.

Troy Andersen - Cleared to play Sunday Andersen (knee) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Saints and is expected to play.

Impact Andersen practiced fully all week and looks ready to return to action after missing the previous five contests. His return figures to send Nate Landman back to the bench, leaving Andersen and Kaden Elliss as Atlanta's top linebackers. Both should be busy against a run-heavy New Orleans offense missing numerous key wide receivers.

Kyle Pitts - Avoids injury designation Pitts (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Saints.

Impact WR Drake London, on the other hand, is listed as questionable with a hip injury. London and Pitts both were limited practice participants Wednesday and Thursday, but the tight end upgraded to full participation Friday while his teammate remained limited. Although fellow tight end Charlie Woerner has eaten into Pitts' playing time recently, Pitts had four straight weeks with at least five targets and 70 receiving yards prior to falling flat last Sunday against the Cowboys (one catch for 11 yards on one target). Any limitations for London would improve Pitts' chances to see more first-read targets and get back on track for fantasy managers.

Drake London - Listed as questionable London (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints.

Impact London missed the final three quarters of last week's game after suffering a hip pointer on an early TD catch, and he's now been a limited participant in each subsequent practice. Reports from Thursday's practice suggested he looked comfortable running routes, with London then saying afterward that he planned to play if the team would let him. The decision may come down to a game-time decision ahead of the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff this Sunday, with KhaDarel Hodge expected to pick up most of London's usual snaps if the star wideout ends up inactive.

Troy Andersen - DNP again Thursday Andersen (knee) remained sidelined at Thursday's practice, Daniel Flick of SI.com reports.

Impact Andersen has missed Atlanta's last five games, but coach Raheem Morris has continued to label him as day-to-day. He's likely going to need some form of practice participation Friday if he wants to have any chance of suiting up Sunday against the Saints. Kaden Elliss and Nate Landman have been filling in at linebacker.

Kyle Pitts - Stays limited Thursday Pitts (hamstring) practiced on a limited basis Thursday, Daniel Flick of SI.com reports.

Impact One day removed from being estimated as a limited participant due to a hamstring issue, Pitts officially had a cap on his reps Thursday as the Falcons got back on the practice field. He thus has only more chance to prove his health this week before the Falcons potentially tag him with a designation ahead of Sunday's game at New Orleans. WR Drake London (hip pointer) also is banged-up, so the statuses of the team's top two pass catchers is up in the air for Week 10 action.

NOVEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

Drake London - Remains limited in practice London (hip) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Daniel Flick of SI.com reports.

Impact During the open portion of Thursday's practice, London was seen running routes but didn't seem as fluid as he normally does, per D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. London emerged from this past Sunday's win against the Cowboys with a right hip pointer, and he told Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com on Thursday that "it's just a day-by-day thing ... If they're willing to let me play, then I'm gonna be out there." Friday's injury report will reveal London's odds to suit up Sunday at New Orleans.

Saints vs. Falcons Injury Report – Week 10, 2024

See who's in and who's out for the Week 10 matchup between the Atlanta Falcons and New Orleans Saints on November 10, 2024.

NOVEMBER 6 • DATA SKRIVE

Grady Jarrett - Estimated as limited Wednesday Jarrett (Achilles) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report, Daniel Flick of SI.com reports.

Impact Jarrett is considered day-to-day due to an Achilles injury he picked up during the Falcons' 27-21 win over the Cowboys this past Sunday. Even if he's able to log a full practice this week, that doesn't guarantee that he'll be given the green light to play Sunday against the Saints. If Jarrett were to miss time or play on a snap count, Kentavius Street and Ta'Quon Graham would be the top candidates to see increased snaps at defensive end.

NOVEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE

Kyle Pitts - Tending to hamstring issue Pitts was estimated as limited on Wednesday's practice report due to a hamstring injury, Daniel Flick of SI.com reports.

Impact Both Pitts and the Falcons' No. 1 WR Drake London (hip) received the same listing, leaving the statuses of the team's top two pass catchers up in the air for Week 10 action. Pitts will have two more opportunities this week in which to log a full practice or otherwise risk heading into the weekend with a designation for Sunday's contest in New Orleans.
