The Atlanta Falcons have announced their inactives list ahead of the Week 4 NFC South rivalry game against the New Orleans Saints. The list includes right tackle Kaleb McGary, who was previously ruled out due to a knee injury sustained during last Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Both McGary and center Drew Dalman were injured in the game against the Chiefs. While Dalman was placed on injured reserve with an ankle injury, McGary remains day-to-day in his recovery. Storm Norton is expected to start at right tackle, while Ryan Neuzil will fill in for Dalman at center.
To bolster their offensive line depth, the Falcons have promoted veteran interior lineman Elijah Wilkinson from the practice squad and signed guard/center Matt Hennessy to the practice squad. Hennessy has been elevated to the active game day roster instead of Jovaughn Gwyn, who is listed as inactive for Sunday’s game.
Additionally, rookie running back Jase McClellan and defensive linemen Ruke Orhorhoro and Brandon Dorlus are healthy scratches for the fourth time this season.
For the Saints, wide receiver A.T. Perry, guard/center Cesar Ruiz, and linebacker Demario Davis are ruled out of Sunday's game. Despite being on this week's injury report, running back Alvin Kamara and wide receiver Chris Olave will play against the Falcons.
Here is the full list of Falcons inactives ahead of Week 4:
- RB Jase McClellan
