Falcons Wednesday updates: Four players miss practice

Cordarrelle Patterson, Ade Ogundeji, Richie Grant and Fabian Moreau each sat out of practice Wednesday.

The Atlanta Falcons lost three defenders during Sunday’s loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and all three players missed practice on Wednesday.

On the bright side, defensive lineman Jonathan Bullard returned after missing the previous two weeks. With five games remaining, and a 5-7 record, the Falcons aren’t writing off the playoffs just yet, but there’s still plenty of work to do before that becomes a realistic goal.
