FLOWERY BRANCH — Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney, who has a shoulder injury, did not practice Friday and will be questionable for the Sunday’s game against the Panthers.

Defensive tackle Brandon Dorlus (abdomen) and linebacker JD Bertrand (eye) also are questionable.

The Falcons (8-8) are set to host the Panthers (4-12) at 1 p.m. Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Mooney needs only eight yards receiving for the Falcons to have two thousand-yard receivers for the first time since 2012.

In addition to Mooney, Dorlus, cornerback Kevin King (concussion/not injury related -- personal matter), defensive tackle David Onyemata (shoulder/not injury related -- personal matter) and defensive tackle Grady Jarretts (rest) did not practice on Friday.

King (concussion) was injured in the 34-7 win over the Giants and did not play Sunday against the Commanders. King has played in 15 games and made one start this season. He has 10 tackles and a fumble recovery.
