Falcons: OT Kaleb McGary had a very strong game after struggling last week, as Pro Football Focus gave him both the highest game grade of his career so far and the highest of any offensive player in the game. CB Desmond Trufant had a tackle before suffering a major forearm injury shortly before halftime and will miss the rest of the season. After Trufant’s injury, CB Jordan Miller earned the most defensive playing time of his career so far with 20% of snaps, earning a career-high two tackles.
Panthers: OLB Shaq Thompson made 10 tackles including one TFL as Carolina lost to Atlanta.
