FLOWERY BRANCH -- Falcons rookie offensive tackle Jalen Mayfield, who is getting a lot of action at right tackle, is learning on the job.

With Kaleb McGary and Matt Gono on the physically-unable-to-perform list with undisclosed injuries, Mayfield has been getting extra reps in practice during training camp.

He had a rough matchup with outside linebacker Jacob Tuioti-Mariner on Saturday that ended with him on the ground.

The Falcons will have their first padded practice Tuesday.
