FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Atlanta Falcons veteran right guard Chris Chester, who started all 16 games during the 2015 season, will undergo surgery on his right shoulder.
``As soon as possible,'' Chester told ESPN.com of the timetable for the surgery. ``The rotator cuff kind of got jammed up a little bit. It's nothing major, but it's an issue that's going to have to get addressed.''
Chester suffered the injury in a Week 12 loss to Minnesota and played through the pain. He was held out Wednesday practices from Week 13 on.
Chester signed a one-year, $2.
