The Atlanta Falcons (8-8) will close out the 2024 NFL season at home against the Carolina Panthers (4-12) this Sunday at 1 p.m. ET. Falcons wide receivers Drake London and Darnell Mooney were among 12 players limited at Thursday’s practice.
London has a knee injury while Mooney is battling a shoulder injury. Neither player was listed on Wednesday’s report so it’s worth keeping an eye on their participation status at Friday’s practice.
Linebacker Nate Landman and Pro Bowl wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge (ribs) were also added to the latest injury report. On the bright side, cornerback Kevin King (concussion) returned to practice after sitting out on Wednesday.

Neither NFC South team appears to be headed to the postseason but the Falcons still have an outside shot. If Atlanta defeats Carolina in Week 18 and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers lose to the New Orleans Saints, the Falcons can steal the division.
