Falcons’ injury report: Chuma Edoga out for Saints game
FLOWERY BRANCH -- Offensive lineman Chuma Edoga (knee) was declared out for Sunday’s game against the Saints on Friday.
The Falcons (5-8) are set to play the Saints (4-9) at 1 p.m. Sunday at Caesars Superdome.
Running back Cordarrelle Patterson (rest) and wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge (illness) returned to practice Friday after missing practice Thursday.
Also, the preferred starting left guard, Elijah Wilkinson (knee surgery), made it through a full week of practice and likely will be activated from injured reserve before the game.
Outside linebacker Arnold Ebiketie (wrist) and defensive lineman Jalen Dalton (toe) were not on the injury report. Both players were inactive for the most-recent game, against the Steelers on Dec. 4.
