Falcons cornerback Mike Hughes is set to play in the team's Week 14 game against the Minnesota Vikings at U.S. Bank Stadium. Hughes was previously listed as questionable due to a neck injury that caused him to miss the last two games. Before his injury, Hughes had been a starter alongside A.J. Terrell, with Clark Phillips III stepping in during his absence.
The Falcons have confirmed that rookies Ruke Orhorhoro and Casey Washington will not participate in the game. Both players were downgraded to out on Saturday. Orhorhoro has been recovering from an ankle injury and only returned to practice this week after spending a month on injured reserve. Washington's status was affected by a concussion.
The complete list of inactive Falcons for Week 14 includes wide receiver Jase McClellan, cornerback Natrone Brooks, inside linebacker Rashaan Evans, offensive lineman Elijah Wilkinson, tackle Brandon Parker, and wide receiver Casey Washington.
