Falcons' David Onyemata: Cleared for Week 15 matchup
Onyemata (foot) is active for Thursday's game against the Buccaneers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Onyemata was limited by a foot injury throughout the week, but he was able to practice each day. That's enough for him to suit up in Week 15 against Tampa Bay, and he should play a fairly significant role along Atlanta's defensive line.

Falcons' David Onyemata: Questionable to face Buccaneers
Onyemata (foot) is officially listed as questionable for Thursday's game against Tampa Bay, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Onyemata logged another limited practice Wednesday. He was able to play through his foot issue versus Seattle in Week 14, though that resulted in Onyemata handling a season-low 46 percent of defensive snaps, across which he tallied just two assisted tackles.

Falcons' David Onyemata: Still tending to foot issue
Onyemata (foot) was a limited participant during the Falcons' walkthrough practice Tuesday, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Onyemata was able to play through his foot problem in Week 14 versus the Seahawks, but it's still bothering him as Atlanta is starting preparation for Week 15. As long as he's able to practice Wednesday, he should still be considered likely to play Thursday at Tampa Bay.

Falcons' David Onyemata: Questionable for Sunday
Onyemata (foot) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks.
The 33-year-old upgraded from a DNP on Thursday to a limited session Friday, suggesting he's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday. Onyemata has appeared in all 12 of Atlanta's games this season, recording 43 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks. If active for the Week 14 contest, he's expected to operate as one of the Falcons' top interior defensive linemen.

Falcons' David Onyemata: Productive second season in Atlanta
Onyemata finished the 2024 season with 45 total tackles (23 solo), including 3.0 sacks, while also adding a pass defensed over 17 games.
Onyemata was able to appear in all 17 of Atlanta's games this season, reaching 45 takedowns, which is his second-highest total in nine NFL campaigns. The nose tackle remains under contract with the Falcons for one more year and will likely return to his starting role with the team in 2025.

Falcons' David Onyemata: Notches sack in loss
Onyemata recorded four total tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 17-13 loss to the Chargers.
Onyemata was able to get to Justin Herbert for his first sack since Week 5, raising his season total to 2.0 sacks over 12 games. The defensive lineman has now registered 34 total tackles (17 solo), including the 2.0 sacks, while also securing a pass defensed in 2024.

Falcons' David Onyemata: Clear starter in Week 1
Onyemata produced two tackles (one solo) during Sunday's 18-10 loss to the Steelers.
Onyemata played 43 of Atlanta's 68 defensive snaps in Week 1, a solid amount for a 300-pound DT, but his production was lackluster. Onyemata finished with a career-high 50 tackles, including 4.0 sacks, last season, but he may face more double teams this season, as Atlanta's switch to a 3-4 defense may leave him alone in the middle of the trenches more often.
