Our Atlanta Falcons head into the 2017 season remarkably healthy, which is a blessing we don’t always get to enjoy. That doesn’t mean the injury report is completely clear, however, and that’s what we’re here to talk about tonight.
The Falcons released a very small injury report Wednesday, and the good news is that rookie safety Damontae Kazee appears to be on track to play Sunday against the Bears. He participated fully in practice, and barring setbacks, he’ll back up Ricardo Allen. I’m hopeful he’ll find his way to some playing time sooner than later, because he’s a genuinely exciting young player.
