Falcons right tackle Kaleb McGary left the game against the Eagles with a knee jury with 8:10 left in the second quarter.

He returned to the game in the fourth quarter.

The Falcons are already without first-round pick Chris Lindstrom, who was placed on injured reserved after suffered a broken fifth metatarsal in his foot against the Vikings.

McGary was injured on a running play on first down-and-10 from the Falcons’ 36. Running back Devonta Freeman picked up four yards on the play.

Ty Sambrailo went in at right tackle for the Falcons.
