Offensive tackle Lamar Holmes, who suffered a broken right foot in June, was placed on the physically unable to perform list by the Falcons on Thursday.
Holmes, 6-foot-6 and 310 pounds, was selected by the Atlanta Falcons in the third-round (91st pick overall) of the 2012 NFL Draft. Holmes has played in 21 games and made 19 starts for the Falcons.
He reported for camp on crutches and with his foot in a heavy boot. He missed most of last season with a foot injury.
Holmes has a history of foot problems dating back to his rookie season. He played in one game in 2012 and had a foot surgery.
He came back to start 15 of 16 games in 2013 before he suffered another foot injury in the fourth game of last season.
Holmes, 25, had dropped about 30 pounds and was moving well in the Falcons’ new zone-clocking scheme. He was having a strong camp before the injury.
Holmes counts against the 90-man roster limit.
