Newly acquired strong safety James Cyprien, who played 24 defensive snaps (33%) against the Texans, was placed on injured reserve on Tuesday.
The Falcons (1-4) are set to play the Cardinals (1-3-1) at 4:05 p.m. Sunday at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Ariz.
Cyprien suffered a foot injury and he was coming off a ACL knee injury that he suffered in 2018. He also played three snaps on special teams in the 53-32 loss to the Texans.
The Falcons signed cornerback D.J. White, who played at Georgia Tech, off the Eagles practice squad and onto the 53-man roster. Offensive lineman John Wetzel was signed to the roster. Punter Sam Irwin-Hill was signed to the practice squad and tight end Carson Meier was released from the practice squad.
