Falcons' Keshawn Banks: Reverts to IR
Banks (undisclosed) reverted to the Falcons' injured reserve list Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Banks was waived by the Falcons on Sunday with an injury designation. The linebacker will now spend the entirety of the 2026 regular season on IR unless he is waived with an injury settlement.

Falcons' JD Bertrand: Placed on injured reserve
The Falcons placed Bertrand (undisclosed) on injured reserve Monday, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.
The nature of Bertrand's injury is not clear, but the move to IR means the third-year pro will be forced to miss at least the first four games of the regular season, making Week 5 against the Ravens on Sunday, Oct. 11 the earliest he can return. He logged 35 tackles (13 solo) and two pass defenses across 15 regular-season games in 2025, contributing both on defense and special teams.

Falcons' Anterio Thompson: Moved to reserve/non-football injury list
The Falcons moved Thompson (undisclosed) to the reserve/non-football injury list Sunday, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.
Thompson spent all of training camp on the active/non-football injury list, making the defensive tackle eligible to start the season on the reserve/NFI list. The 23-year-old is now required to miss at least the first four games of the regular season before being eligible to return to the active roster.

Falcons' Billy Bowman: Passes physical, taken off PUP list
Bowman (Achilles) passed his physical and was activated from the PUP list Sunday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Bowman continues to make strides in his return from an Achilles injury, and the passed physical marks another positive milestone. Had he landed on the PUP list to open the season, Bowman would have been out for the first four games at minimum. Now it appears the Falcons are confident that they'll have Bowman back in the fold sooner rather than later, even if his status for Week 1 remains murky.

Falcons' Beaux Collins: Placed on IR with return designation
The Falcons placed Collins (undisclosed) on injured reserve Sunday with a designation to return during the season, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.
Collins did not play in the Falcons' preseason finale against the Dolphins on Friday due to an unknown injury. The wide receiver will now need to miss at least the first four games of the regular season before he is permitted to rejoin the team's active roster.

Falcons' Da'Shawn Hand: Battling leg injury
Hand has missed most of training camp due to a leg injury, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
It's unknown how severe the injury is, but questions concerning Hand's health arose after Atlanta acquired Gervon Dexter from Chicago on Sunday. Hand, the 2018 No. 114 overall pick, has bounced around the NFL since being drafted, making stops in Detroit, Miami and Los Angeles (Chargers), where he most recently appeared in 13 regular-season games and amassed 29 total tackles and 1.5 sacks during the 2025-26 campaign. Until there is a definitive update, the 30-year-old should at least be considered day-to-day.

Falcons' Gervon Dexter: Traded to Atlanta
Dexter (hamstring) was traded to the Falcons from the Bears on Sunday, NFL Insider's Jordan Schultz reports.
Despite drawing interest from a few teams, Dexter will head to Atlanta in exchange for Clark Phillips and a fifth-round pick. The 25-year-old Dexter has appeared in 49 regular-season games for the Bears throughout his career, totaling 115 tackles and 13.5 sacks. Dexter has been battling a hamstring injury suffered during a recent practice, so his Week 1 status is in limbo.

Falcons' Zachariah Branch: Returns punt in preseason win
Branch returned a punt for 18 yards during the Falcons' 17-12 preseason win over the Dolphins on Friday.
Branch didn't see much action Friday, playing a total of four snaps (three on offense, one on special teams). However, his lone snap on special teams came as a punt returner, and he figures to see plenty of work as a returner in the upcoming season, especially if he doesn't get much playing time on offense behind Drake London, Jahan Dotson and Olamide Zaccheaus.

Falcons' Drake London: Sees minimal work vs. Miami
London played eight snaps on offense and didn't show up in the box score otherwise during the Falcons' 17-12 preseason win over the Dolphins on Friday.
London was limited to playing the first quarter of Friday's exhibition game before observing the rest of the contest from the sidelines. Entering his fifth NFL season, the USC product has recorded at least 68 catches and 850 receiving yards in each of his four years with Atlanta. London has been one of the most productive receivers since entering the league in 2022, but his offensive output will be heavily tied to the production of the Falcons' starting quarterback, whether that's Tua Tagovailoa or Michael Penix (knee).

Falcons' Darren Hall: Lands on IR
The Falcons placed Hall (undisclosed) on injured reserve Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Hall will now be forced to miss the entirety of the upcoming campaign unless he's let go with an injury settlement. He most recently played for the Cardinals, appearing in two games during the 2025 season, and will now shift his focus to getting healthy.
