Atlanta Falcons Announce Inactive Players for Week 13 Against Jets
As the Atlanta Falcons prepare to face the New York Jets this Sunday at MetLife Stadium, they will be without several key players. The team has announced that they will feature a notable absence in their receiving corps.
Injuries Impacting Falcons’ Receiving Corps
The Falcons ruled out Drake London earlier this week due to a PCL strain. This injury will keep him sidelined for the second consecutive game. Joining London as inactive players are KhaDarel Hodge and Casey Washington.
- Drake London: Out with a PCL strain.
- KhaDarel Hodge: Dealing with a shoulder injury; inactive despite not being labeled with an injury designation on Friday.
- Casey Washington: Healthy scratch for the second week in a row.
Coach Comments on Inactive Players
Head coach Raheem Morris provided insight into Washington’s status this week. He noted that Washington was not among the players relied upon to secure a win last week. Morris assured that personnel decisions continue to evolve from week to week.
Questionable Player Status
The Falcons had one player listed as questionable ahead of the matchup. Chris Lindstrom, who has been nursing a foot injury for most of the past month, has been cleared to participate in the game against the Jets.

The absence of multiple receivers adds significant pressure on Atlanta’s offense as they prepare to compete against a formidable Jets defense. The Falcons will need to swiftly adapt to these injuries to maintain their competitive edge this Sunday.
