The Atlanta Falcons (5-6) are set to take on the Washington Commanders (6-5) on Sunday afternoon at 1 p.m. ET. A win would put the team back at .500 with five games remaining in the season. It won’t be easy for the Falcons, though, as injuries have begun to pile up on both sides of the ball.
Tight end Kyle Pitts (knee) has been placed on injured reserve, along with defensive lineman Ta’Quon Graham (knee). As for the Commanders, they’re awaiting the return of edge rusher Chase Young, who’s yet to make his 2022 debut.
