Thursday has arrived, which means teams are heading into their second-to-last practice of the week. As the Atlanta Falcons and Carolina Panthers gear up for their divisional clash, both sides have made some adjustments to the injury report. With the weekend matchup closing in, let’s break down where things stand heading into the final stretch of preparation.

Looking at the Falcons first, there were some additions to the report on Thursday. Tight end Kyle Pitts was added with a toe injury which had him limited. We will be monitoring that heading into Friday. Also, corner Mike Ford has a groin issue that kept him out of practice on Thursday, with him possibly aggravating that in Wednesday’s practice.
Some good news though, receiver Darnell Mooney, linebacker Kaden Elliss, and tackle Jack Nelson, who were all limited on Wednesday, logged full practices on Thursday.
There were no big changes to the Panthers report, just that defensive tackle Bobby Brown III was added with a knee issue and safety Tre’von Moehrig popped up with an illness. Both did not practice on Thursday.
Stay tuned, as Friday we will get game designations and it’ll be more clear who will play this weekend.
