Falcons wide receiver Taylor Gabriel had a tooth injury and was limited in practice Wednesday in advance of the game Sunday at the Panthers.
Gabriel wore a non-contact jersey at practice. Running back Devonta Freeman (neck/shoulder) and cornerback Brian Poole (neck) also were limited and wore non-contact jerseys.
Linebacker LaRoy Reynolds (chest) fully participated in practice. He was added to the 53-man roster Tuesday after going on injured reserve Sept. 4.
“It was tough, but I tried to stay motivated,” said Reynolds of his stint on IR. “I tried to do my part as a leader and motivate my guys.”
He’s expected to return to his role on special teams.
“We are going to see, take it day to day,” Reynolds said. “I know we are going to get after it this week.”
Defensive tackle Grady Jarrett (ankle), linebacker Deion Jones (ankle), defensive end Takkarist McKinley (shoulder) and defensive tackle Courtney Upshaw (ankle) were also limited at practice.
Linebacker Duke Riley (knee surgery) did not practice.
