FLOWERY BRANCH -- Falcons rookie defensive tackle Ruke Orhorhoro (left ankle injury), right guard Chris Lindstrom (knee) and linebacker JD Bertand (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday, according to the Falcons’ official injury report.

Outside linebacker Matthew Judon (rest), safety Justin Simmons (hamstring), cornerback Antonio Hamilton Sr. (back), inside linebacker Troy Andersen (knee), defensive end James Smith-Williams (rest), inside linebacker Kaden Elliss (knee) and center Drew Dalman (ankle) were limited in practice.

“Dalman is doing really well, progressing back,” Morris said before practice. “Hamilton made it through the game fairly well. Ruke, we’ll have to see a little bit more. See what’s going on with him today. Not looking great.”

Andersen, who has missed the past four games, returned to practice last week, but did not play in the game.

“Justin Simmons should be back on his normal program,” Morris said. “He’ll be out (at practice) today. We’ll probably be doing some modified stuff with him. Looking (forward) to getting (him) back and potentially being ready to go this week.”
