Falcons rule out LBs Troy Andersen, Lorenzo Carter

The Atlanta Falcons will travel to Seattle on Sunday seeking their fourth consecutive win, but will do so without the services of starting inside linebacker Troy Andersen. The team's co-leader in tackles this season is dealing with a knee injury, and was ruled out on Friday for the third consecutive week despite being listed as a limited participant in practice. Fellow linebacker Lorenzo Carter also was ruled out with a concussion, while safety Justin Simmons (hamstring) and cornerback Antonio Hamilton Sr. (back) are questionable to face the Seahawks. The good news is that pass rusher Matthew Judon returned to practice following a rest day, as did linebacker Nate Landman, who is dealing with calf and quad injuries.
