The Falcons will be without four players in practice Wednesday.

“Injury-wise, we’ll hold a few today,” Falcons coach Dan Quinn said before practice. “You may see them working on a side. OZ (wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus, with an undisclosed injury), defensive tackle Marlon Davidson (knee strain) and running back (Qadree) Ollison (undisclosed injury). Those three will be working on the side and we’re excusing Kurt Benkert for the very best of personal reasons.”

Also, running back Todd Gurley and center Alex Mack will not practice as they both receiving a rest/load-management day.
