The Falcons are taking a cautious approach with their two edge rushers. Walker is recovering from a groin injury he suffered during joint practices with the Tennessee Titans. Pearce is healthy, but Morris said he's happy with how the rookie has played and won't risk an injury in Friday's finale.

The Atlanta Falcons have had a busy morning thus far, announcing multiple roster moves ahead of Monday's practice. Head coach Raheem Morris also provided injury updates on rookie Jalon Walker and several other injured players.

The Falcons offensive line is having a tough day on the injury front on Wednesday. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that tackle Storm Norton is set to miss six-to-eight weeks after having ankle surgery. Norton has been sideline for an extended period of time this month.

Whether he's sharpening the first-team defense or helping Michael Penix, Cousins is doing what he can to help the Falcons.

After remaining mostly healthy for all of training camp and the preseason, disaster struck for the Falcons just a few weeks away from the start of the season.

The Cowboys are getting their fastball ready. On Tuesday, it was announced that key Dallas rookie running back, Jaydon Blue, is back healthy and ready to begin his pro career on Friday in the team's final exhibition game against the Atlanta Falcons.

Atlanta Falcons head coach Raheem Morris was complimentary of what veteran cornerback CJ Henderson showed during his first team practice Monday.
