On Thursday, the Atlanta Falcons wrapped up their second practice ahead of this weekend’s NFC South showdown against the New Orleans Saints.
The Falcons listed nine players, including wide receiver Drake London and tight end Kyle Pitts, on the team’s Thursday injury report. London (hip) and Pitts (hamstring) were limited for the second consecutive day.
Outside linebacker Matthew Judon returned after missing Wednesday’s practice due to illness. Inside linebacker JD Bertrand was absent once again due to a concussion.
Defensive lineman Grady Jarrett was also limited with an Achilles strain. Check out Atlanta’s full Thursday injury report below.

Drake London injury update:
London was injured during the team’s Week 9 win over the Cowboys. Despite sitting out for the final three quarters due to a hip pointer, London has practiced the last two days. This undoubtedly increases his chances to play in Week 10.
Kyle Pitts injury update:
Pitts was limited for the second day in a row due to a hamstring injury. The fourth-year tight end has been dealing with a hamstring issue throughout the season, so it may just be precautionary.
Chris Lindstrom injury update:
Lindstrom, who’s battling a knee injury, was limited again on Thursday. The Pro Bowl guard would be a huge loss if he can’t play against the Saints on Sunday.
