Falcons' James Pearce: Extends sack streak Thursday
Pearce recorded three total tackles (two solo), including 2.0 sacks, and two passes defensed during Thursday's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers.
Pearce was one of five Falcons to get after the quarterback during Thursday's divisional win, bringing down Baker Mayfield in the first and second quarters. The 2025 first-round pick from Tennessee is beginning to emerge as a potential Defensive Rookie of the Year candidate, having recorded at least one full sack in each of Atlanta's last six games. His next opportunity to rush the passer will likely come in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals.

Falcons' James Pearce: Questionable for Week 14
Pearce (back) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
Although the 22-year-old is dealing with a back injury, head coach Raheem Morris told reporters Friday that he feels good about Pearce's chances of playing Sunday. Pearce, a 2025 first-round pick from Tennessee, has appeared in all 12 of Atlanta's games this season, recording 15 total tackles, including 5.0 sacks, one pass defensed and one forced fumble. If he's active in Week 14, he'll likely operate as one of the Falcons' top edge rushers.
