Activated from injured reserve The Falcons activated Carter (concussion) from injured reserve Saturday, Daniel Flick of SI.com reports.
Impact Carter was concussed in Week 6 and missed the required four games while on injured reserve. After practicing in full this week, Carter appears to have a good chance of suiting up Sunday against the Broncos. He recorded 15 tackles (11 solo) through the first six games of the season prior to his injury.

Practices in full Thursday Carter (concussion) was a full participant during Thursday's practice, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Impact Carter remains on injured reserve and in the league's concussion protocols, but he could be close to returning from both after practicing without restrictions Thursday. If he's able to be cleared by an independent neurologist, Carter could be activated off IR and play against the Broncos on Sunday.

Practice window opens Wednesday The Falcons designated Carter (concussion) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.
Impact A concussion led Carter to be placed on injured reserve ahead of Week 7. His 21-day practice window opened Wednesday, and he was estimated as a limited participant on the Falcons' injury report, per Tori McElhaney of the team's official site. Even if Carter were to practice in full this week, he'll need to clear the league's five step concussion protocols in order to play against the Broncos on Sunday.

Lands on IR due to concussion The Falcons placed Carter (concussion) on injured reserve Saturday, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Carter was unable to practice all week due to a concussion he sustained in Week 6 against the Panthers. His placement on injured reserve suggests Carter still has a long way to go before clearing the league's five-step concussion protocol. The 2018 third-round pick will be forced to miss at least the next four games, and he is eligible to return in Week 11 against the Broncos on Nov. 17. DeAngelo Malone, Arnold Ebiketie and James Smith-Williams are all candidates to see increased snaps on defense while Carter is sidelined.

Missing first game in Week 7 Head coach Raheem Morris told reporters Friday that Carter (concussion) won't play in Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks, Amna Subhan of the Falcons' official site reports.
Impact Carter has not practiced this week and has yet to pass the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, so it's no surprise he's been ruled out ahead of Sunday's contest. Expect James Smith-Williams and Arnold Ebiketie to see additional reps with Atlanta's first-team defense in Carter's stead.

Still listed as starter Carter is listed as one of the starting outside linebackers on the Falcons' official depth chart, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
Impact The Falcons made a huge splash late in training camp by trading for Matthew Judon and signing Justin Simmons. Both newcomers are listed as backups on the depth chart, but that's expected to change as they get more acclimated to Atlanta's system. Carter and Arnold Ebiketie are expected to compete for the other starting outside linebacker spot when Judon is up to full speed.
