Dealing with oblique inujry Tagovailoa was limited at Thursday's practice by an oblique injury, according to the Falcons' official site.

Impact It appeared Tagovailoa was dealing with a back injury, but it turns out he is actually dealing with an oblique issue. This is a curveball for the Falcons, who are already shorthanded at quarterback with Michael Penix (knee) out for the opener. With Tagovailoa tending to the injury, the Falcons gave all the first-team reps to Cooper Rush on Thursday. Suddenly, Friday's injury report becomes one of the most impactful ones across the whole league as the Falcons could be down their top two quarterbacks for Week 1 if Tagovailoa doesn't bounce back quickly.

Impact Raimondi cautions that only a small portion of practice is open to the media, but it's also possible that Tagovailoa was shut down for the remainder of practice after potentially hurting his back. The 28-year-old quarterback was named the starter for Sunday's season opener earlier in the week, as the Falcons declared that Michael Penix (knee) isn't ready for game action yet.
