Falcons’ offensive tackle Ty Sambrailo (hamstring), offensive guard James Carpenter (concussion) and defensive end Allen Bailey (not injury related) were declared out on Friday for Sunday’s game against the San Francisco 49ers.
Cornerback Isaiah Oliver (shoulder) was listed as questionable.
“We anticipate him being able to go,” coach Dan Quinn said. “He kept getting stronger as the week went on.”
Jordan Miller or newly signed Jamar Taylor could play at nickel back if Oliver is out. Kendall Sheffield and Blidi Wreh-Wilson would then play outside. Earlier in week, starting left cornerback Desmond Trufant was placed on injured reserved with a broken forearm.
Oliver, wide receiver Julio Jones (shoulder), safety Sharrod Neasman (shoulder), center Alex Mack (rest day), running back Devonta Freeman (knee), linebacker De’Vondre Campbell (calf) guard Wes Schweitzer (shoulder) and defensive end Adrian Clayborn (back) all fully participated in practice at San Jose State on Friday in preparation for the game.
