Falcons make changes to roster ahead of Week 9 game vs. Bengals
Falcons place Brian Robinson on IR, sign RB ahead of Bengals game in Madrid
The Atlanta Falcons recently made roster adjustments ahead of their Week 9 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. Running back Brian Robinson Jr. was placed on the injured reserve list due to a hamstring injury, ruling him out for the game. In response, the Falcons signed running back Khalil Herbert to the 53-man roster, elevating him from the practice squad to replace Robinson.
Quarterback James Pearce Jr. remains questionable for the game after suffering a back injury on Friday, but he has practiced extensively this week. Wide receiver Beaux Collins and linebacker Yasir Abdullah were also activated from the injured reserve list, providing more playing options for the Falcons. Additionally, edge rusher Drake Jackson was promoted to the practice squad, potentially stepping in for Pearce if necessary.
