Falcons place veteran kicker Matt Bryant on season-ending injured reserve

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- The Atlanta Falcons will play their final four games without veteran kicker Matt Bryant.

The team placed the 40-year-old Bryant on IR with a right quad injury suffered a few weeks ago in practice. Bryant, who made 14 of 18 field goals through 10 games, missed the last two games as a result of the injury.

With Bryant out of the lineup, fellow veteran Shayne Graham will handle the kicking duties for the remainder of the season.
