INJURIES

Secures 13 tackles in loss Evans recorded 13 tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 35-17 loss to the Bengals.
Impact Evans played 100 percent of the Falcons' defensive snaps Sunday, recording a season-high tackle tally in the loss. On the season, the linebacker has produced 65 tackles, three pass deflections and two fumble recoveries over seven contests.
OCTOBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Doesn't miss in Week 7 Koo made his only field-goal attempt and both of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 35-17 loss to the Bengals.
Impact Koo's lone field goal, a 43-yard attempt as time expired in the first half, was setup by a 56-yard punt return by Avery Williams. After making 10 of 12 field-goal attempts through the first four games of the season, Koo has attempted just two field goals in the last three games. However, Atlanta's schedule is set to soften up after a stretch against some tough defenses, so it's possible Koo will get more opportunities moving forward.
OCTOBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Garners small offensive role Williams rushed once for four yards and failed to haul in his only target during Sunday's 35-17 loss to the Bengals. He also returned two punts for 64 yards.
Impact Williams saw his smallest offensive role of the season as Tyler Allgeier and Caleb Huntley once again dominated the running back snaps in Cordarrelle Patterson's (knee) absence. However, Williams did make an impact on special teams by recording a 56-yard punt return at the end of the first half that setup a last-second, 43-yard field goal from Younghoe Koo.
OCTOBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Operates as backup Huntley rushed six times for 22 yards during Sunday's 35-17 loss to the Bengals.
Impact Huntley and Tyler Allgeier split carries during the first two games without Cordarrelle Patterson, who's on IR with a knee injury, but Allgeier separated himself as the top back in Week 7 with 16 rushing attempts for 50 yards and his first career NFL touchdown. Huntley played just 11 offensive snaps compared to Allgeier's 29, but both running backs posted less than 4.0 yards per carry. Patterson will remain sidelined for at least one more contest, so expect Allgeier to once again get the bulk of the touches against the Panthers in Week 8.
OCTOBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Modest production in loss Zaccheaus caught three of four targets for 31 yards during Sunday's 35-17 loss to the Bengals.
Impact Zaccheaus finished second on the team in targets and yards while tying Kyle Pitts with a team-high three receptions. Atlanta's passing attack has struggled to produce consistent fantasy options this season, but Zaccheaus has been Marcus Mariota's most reliable target, catching multiple passes and finishing with at least 20 receiving yards in each of the first seven games of the season. Regardless, Zaccheaus' fantasy potential likely remains limited in Arthur Smith's run-heavy offense.
OCTOBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Catches first pass of season Byrd caught his only target for 75 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 35-17 loss to the Bengals.
Impact After being a healthy inactive for the first three games of the season, Byrd has appeared in four straight contests and garnered just one target in three of those appearances. However, he made the most of his only target against Cincinnati by burning the Bengals secondary for a 75-yard touchdown at the end of the second quarter, marking his first reception and touchdown of the 2022 campaign.

NFL Week 7 top plays: Chiefs hammer 49ers; Packers, Bucs stunned

Week 7 of the NFL season continued Sunday with a huge win by the Chiefs and big losses by the Packers and Bucs. Here are the top plays!

NFL Week 7 top plays: Chiefs hammer 49ers; Packers, Bucs stunned
Attempts only 13 passes Mariota completed eight of his 13 pass attempts for 124 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Sunday's 35-17 loss to the Bengals. He added six rushes for 31 yards.
Impact Atlanta remained dedicated to the run despite facing a large deficit for nearly the entire game, and Mariota has now attempted fewer than 20 passes in three of his last four games. Nearly all of his production came on a 75-yard touchdown pass to Damiere Byrd just before halftime. In addition to his limited production as a passer, Mariota was also bottled up as a rusher, as he entered the game having tallied at least 50 yards on the ground in consecutive matchups. The Falcons have shown a commitment to rushing the ball regardless of game script this season, which makes it difficult to trust Mariota or any of the team's pass catchers for consistent production.
OCTOBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Tallies first career touchdown Allgeier carried the ball 16 times for 50 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 35-17 loss to the Bengals.
Impact After splitting work with Caleb Huntley in Week 6, Allgeier took hold of the lead back role against the Bengals by accounting for 16 of the team's 23 carries by running backs. He failed to tally a gain of at least 10 yards, though he did manage a pair of nine and eight-yard rushes, respectively. However, the highlight of his day came on a one-yard plunge into the end zone just before halftime -- the first touchdown of his career. Allgeier has at least 10 carries in five of his six games this season, tallying 50 or more rushing yards on three occasions.
OCTOBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Targeted once in loss London recorded one catch on one target for nine yards in Sunday's 35-17 loss to the Bengals.
Impact Marcus Mariota attempted only 13 passes on the day, but London's ability to command only one target is still a concern. London is likely to see his volume tick back up moving forward -- he has at least six targets in five of seven games this season -- though he has now failed to top 40 yards in four consecutive games. However, it is worth noting that he appeared on the injury report with a knee injury early in the week leading up to Sunday's game -- an issue that could have hampered him in this performance.
OCTOBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Disappears in loss Pitts recorded three receptions on five targets for nine yards in Sunday's 35-17 loss to the Bengals.
Impact Pitts led the Falcons in targets, though he was still limited as Atlanta stuck to an extremely run-heavy offensive gameplan despite trailing the entire game. That's been a problem for the entire season, as Pitts has at least five targets in only three of his six games this season and has topped 25 receiving yards in a game only once. His struggles can't all be pinned to volume however, as he's also averaged only 5.9 yards per target. The end result has been a very disappointing sophomore campaign for Pitts.

Falcons fail to build off win or take command of division

May not return Hawkins has left Sunday's contest with the Bengals to be evaluated for a head injury, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Impact Hawkins will need to enter protocols if he suffered a concussion, which will certainly impact him for the week ahead. While he is out, Dean Marlowe should see extra opportunity.
OCTOBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Will not return Terrell (hamstring) will not return Sunday against the Bengals, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Impact Terrell was helped off the field by trainers after suffering the injury to his right leg. In his absence, Darren Hall and Cornell Armstrong are manning the corner spots.

Inactive again Sunday Firkser (coach's decision) won't be active for Sunday's clash in Cincinnati, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Firkser will stay on the sidelines for the second straight week after playing in each of Atlanta's first five games. With four healthy tight ends currently ahead of him, it's uncertain when the veteran will next take the field.

Moved to injured reserve Atlanta placed Bernhardt (groin) on IR on Saturday, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Impact Bernhardt had already been ruled out of Sunday's contest versus Cincinnati, and he'll now be required to miss at least four games while on injured reserve. The rookie receiver has notched just nine offensive snaps over two games this season and has not yet seen a target.

Won't face Bengals Alford (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Alford suffered the injury during Atlanta's Week 6 win over the 49ers, and he played a season-low 11 snaps as a result. He has 15 total tackles, two passes defended and an interception through six games this season, so his absence will leave a gap in the Atlanta secondary. Mike Ford is a candidate to see more snaps in Alford's absence.
OCTOBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Won't play at Cincinnati Bernhardt (groin) is listed as out for Sunday's game at the Bengals, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Bernhardt will miss his fourth consecutive week as he recovers from a groin injury. Damiere Byrd and Bryan Edwards should continue to see increased opportunities in his absence.
