Tamme is out; Hooper in at tight end

Falcons tight end Jacob Tamme, who suffered a shoulder injury against Green Bay, will not play against Tampa Bay at 8:25 p.m. Thursday night at Raymond James Stadium.

Tamme is the team’s fourth-leading receiver with 22 catches for 210 yards and three touchdowns.

Rookie Austin Hooper, a third-round pick from Stanford, will take the first-team repetitions this week. Hooper has caught 11 passes for 195 yards and one touchdown.

Also, Levin Toilolo will be used in the double tight end formations. Joshua Perkins, who has been inactive for all eight games, will likely be activated.
