Injury has been a factor for the Falcons all summer. First they lost Avery Williams to a devastating injury early on, and since then ailments suffered by Matt Hennessy, Mike Hughes, and others have impacted their availability in practices and the first preseason game. The infectiously energetic Frank Darby was just waived with an injury designation, as well, which means the team’s depth picture is taking a hit along the way.
That will be true with the latest injury to Ade Ogundeji. When we heard he was getting a second opinion on a foot injury earlier today, as the team noted in their story about his trip to injured reserve, it did not sound like a good sign.
