Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Three grabs in Sunday's loss
Pitts caught three of five targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 34-17 loss to the Bengals.
It was another quiet performance from Pitts, who hasn't reached 25 receiving yards in any of the last three games, and he had to watch backup tight end Charlie Woerner catch Michael Penix's only TD pass of the afternoon in the first quarter. Pitts will take a 25-220-4 line on 37 targets through nine contests into a Week 10 clash with Kansas City.

Falcons' Michael Penix: Held in check through air by Bengals
Penix completed 20 of 31 passes for 162 yards and a touchdown with an interception in Sunday's 34-17 loss to Cincinnati. He added 50 rushing yards on three carries.
It looked like it would be a big day for the Falcons offense when Penix led his team to points on its first two drives. including a one-yard TD to Charlie Woerner, but Atlanta managed just seven more points over the final three quarters. The touchdown pass was Penix's 10th of the season, setting a new career high, but he's also been picked off five times in the last two games after throwing only one INT in his first five contests of 2026. He'll face a tough test in Week 10 against Kansas City.

Falcons' Drake London: Leading receiver in Week 9 loss
London caught all five of his targets for 68 yards in Sunday's 34-17 loss to the Bengals.
Cincinnati's secondary did a good job of limiting London's looks from Michael Penix, but the fifth-year wideout still led Atlanta in receiving yards, although Bijan Robinson caught one more pass and Charlie Woerner hauled in the QB's only touchdown. London has gotten only 11 targets over the last two games, turning them into a disappointing 6-76-0 line, and he could have a hard time breaking out in Week 10 against a stingy Kansas City secondary.

Falcons' Bijan Robinson: Big workload in loss to Cincy
Robinson carried the ball 19 times for 100 yards and a touchdown and caught six of seven targets for 47 yards in Sunday's 34-17 loss to the Bengals.
Backup Khalil Herbert handled just three touches, as Robinson dominated the workload in the Atlanta backfield with his usual No. 2, Brian Robinson (hamstring), on the shelf. It was the first time since Week 4 that Bijan had reached the century mark in rushing yards, and also the first time since that game against the Saints he's gotten into the end zone. Robinson will look to build upon this effort in Week 10 against Kansas City.

Falcons' Olamide Zaccheaus: Back in action Sunday
Zaccheaus (head) has returned to Sunday's matchup against Cincinnati in Madrid, Spain, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Zaccheaus was pulled from the game in the third quarter to be evaluated for a concussion. He cleared protocol relatively quickly and returned during the same period. He'll try to help Atlanta's offense rally back from a fourth-quarter deficit.

Falcons' Olamide Zaccheaus: Being evaluated for concussion
Zaccheaus is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bengals in Madrid, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Zaccheaus exited the third quarter of Sunday's international contest with a head injury. The wide receiver will be evaluated by one of the NFL's independent neurologists, and if he is deemed to have a concussion will be out for the remainder of the game. While Zaccheaus is absent, Chris Blair and Beaux Collins could see more snaps with the offense.

Falcons' Billy Bowman: Inactive for Week 9
Bowman is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
Bowman practiced fully all week and was eligible to return from a two-game absence, but per Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com, he was left off the roster "not for an injury or performance reason" but rather because of a "numbers game" involving other healthy players.

Falcons' Andy Dalton: Again designated QB3
Dalton is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals but was designated as his team's emergency third quarterback.
As was the case in Week 8, Dalton will not occupy a roster spot Sunday, but he will be permitted to play should both Michael Penix and Tua Tagovailoa be forced from the game and unable to return.

Falcons' Yasir Abdullah: Returning to action in Week 9
Abdullah (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game versus the Bengals in Madrid, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
Abdullah was placed on injured reserve on Oct. 10 due to a hamstring injury, and after missing the required four games while on the list, he was designated to return Wednesday and then activated Saturday, setting him up for his first game action since Week 4. A rotational role off the edge is likely for Abdullah with James Pearce (back) making his season debut and all of Cameron Thomas, Za'Darius Smith and Charles Snowden available to the defense.

Falcons' James Pearce: Season debut on tap
Pearce (back) is listed as active Sunday versus the Bengals in Madrid, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
Pearce completed his eight-game suspension for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy this week, but after being listed as a full participant on the Falcons' first two Week 9 injury reports, he was limited by a back injury Friday and thus entered the weekend as questionable to play. With his status now clarified for Sunday's matchup, he seems likely to resume his role as one of Atlanta's top pass rushers, which equated to 10.5 sacks among his 26 tackles in 17 regular-season games as a first-round rookie in 2025.

Falcons' Divine Deablo: Back in action Sunday
Deablo (forearm) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals in Madrid, Will McFadden of the Falcons; official site reports.
Since suffering a forearm injury during a Week 6 loss to the Bears, Deablo has missed the last two contests, and while he capped Week 9 prep with a questionable designation, his full session Friday signaled that he was closing in on a return to action. With that confirmed, he's a good bet to retake one of the starting inside linebacker spots in the Falcons defense, despite Kendal Daniels and Harold Perkins holding down the fort in Deablo's absence.

Falcons' Beaux Collins: Set for Falcons debut
Collins (hip) is listed as active Sunday against the Bengals in Madrid, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
On cut-down day on Aug. 30, the Falcons placed Collins on IR with a designation to return, which would have allowed him to practice as early as Week 3 prep. Instead, his hip injury kept him out of drills until Week 7, when his 21-day window opened, but he sat out the last two games before Atlanta finally activated him Saturday. With Zachariah Branch sidelined Sunday due to a hamstring issue, Collins will serve as a reserve WR along with Chris Blair behind Drake London, Jahan Dotson and Olamide Zaccheaus.

Falcons' Cameron Williams: Won't return for Week 9
Williams (ankle), who remains on IR, has been ruled out for Sunday's clash against Cincinnati, Will McFadden of Atlanta's official site reports.
Williams was designated to return to practice Oct. 22 and logged a trio of full practices this week. However, the Falcons have elected against activating him ahead of Sunday's game. If Atlanta doesn't activate Williams by next Thursday, he'll be required to miss the remainder of the campaign.

Falcons' Yasir Abdullah: Activated from IR, could play Week 9
The Falcons activated Abdullah (hamstring) from injured reserve Saturday, and he remains questionable for Sunday's battle against the Bengals, Will McFadden of Atlanta's official site reports.
Abdullah was placed on injured reserve Oct. 10 and has missed Atlanta's past four games. He began this week with a pair of limited practices before logging a full session Friday. If he returns to action Sunday, Abdullah could provide a boost to a Falcons linebacker corps that could additionally get back James Pearce (back), who is also questionable.
