Still dealing with oblique issue Dorlus (oblique) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Dorlus played through the oblique injury in Week 11 versus Carolina to the tune of a season-high 50 defensive snaps, so it's likely Atlanta is simply taking a cautious approach to begin Week 12 prep. He has two more chances to practice in full before the Falcons release their final practice report of the week Friday.

Good to go Week 11 Dorlus (oblique) is active for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Dorlus ended the week with back-to-back limited practices due to an oblique injury, but the second-year defensive tackle has been cleared to play Sunday after going through pregame warmups. He has posted 12 tackles (seven solo), including 3.0 sacks, in the Falcons' five regular-season games since the Week 5 bye.

Questionable for Week 11 Dorlus (oblique) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Panthers, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The second-year pro from Oregon upgraded from a DNP on Wednesday to limited practice sessions Thursday and Friday, suggesting he's trending toward playing Sunday. However, if Dorlus is sidelined for the first time this season in Week 11, expect LaCale London to have an expanded role on Atlanta's defensive line.

Logs limited practice Thursday Dorlus (oblique) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Tori McElhaney of the team's official website reports.

Impact Dorlus was a limited participant in practice Thursday after not practicing Wednesday. It's unclear when he sustained the injury, as the 24-year-old has logged sacks in back-to-back games and showed no sign of injury in Week 10. His participation in practice Friday will be worth noting in deciding his status for Sunday's game versus the Panthers. Should Dorlus not be able to play, Ruke Orhorhoro could see increased playing time as the next man up at defensive tackle.

Makes impact during SNF Dorlus finished with three tackles (one solo), including 1.5 sacks, during Sunday's 22-6 win over the Vikings.

Impact Dorlus was a 2024 fourth-round pick but appeared in only two games as a rookie. Zach Harrison and David Onyemata are the Falcons' top defensive linemen, while Dorlus is splitting snaps with Ruke Orhorhoro and LaCale London. In that role, Dorlus has played just under 50 percent of Atlanta's defensive snaps through two games. This could be a sign of things to come for Dorlus, but unless he starts seeing more snaps, it'll be difficult for him to replicate this type of production consistently.
