The Falcons are set to face the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night with no major health concerns. Running back Tyler Allgeier, defensive back Antonio Hamilton, and defensive lineman James Smith-Williams, who were limited in practice earlier this week due to injuries, participated fully in Friday's session. Consequently, they were not given a game designation and are active for Sunday's game.
Antonio Hamilton will be making his first appearance for the Falcons after missing the initial games against the Steelers and Eagles due to a groin injury sustained during Week 1 practice. He is listed as Dee Alford's backup at nickel on the official depth chart.
There are no unexpected names on the inactive list for Sunday's matchup. Rookie running back Jase McClellan and defensive linemen Ruke Orhorhoro and Brandon Dorlus remain inactive for the third consecutive game. Head coach Raheem Morris addressed Orhorhoro's status earlier in the week, stating that the coaching staff has been pleased with the performance of their six active defensive linemen: Grady Jarrett, David Onyemata, Ta'Quon Graham, Eddie Goldman, Zach Harrison, and Kentavious Street.
"(Ruke) just happens to be surrounded by a bunch of vets right now that are actually really intently doing a good job for us," Morris said.
The complete list of Falcons inactives ahead of Sunday night's game includes:
RB Jase McClellan
DL Brandon Dorlus
OL Jovaughn Gwyn
T Brandon Parker
DL Ruke Orhorhoro
