The Atlanta Falcons (5-9) began practice a day early this week as the team prepares for Saturday’s game against the Baltimore Ravens (9-5).
Running back Caleb Huntley was officially placed on the injured reserve list and the Falcons signed linebacker David Anenih to the 53-man roster. On the bright side, defensive coordinator Dean Pees returned to the practice field on Tuesday.
Pees, who was taken to the hospital on Sunday after a player collided with him during pregame warmups, will reassume his defensive play-calling duties.
