The Atlanta Falcons have released their inactives list for Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Five players, including cornerback Dee Alford, have been ruled out.
Alford has played well in the slot but a hamstring injury will keep him off the field in Week 7. On the bright side, cornerback A.J. Terrell is expected to play. The Falcons will need a big day from their secondary in order to slow a dangerous Bengals offense.
Atlanta has ruled these five players out for Sunday’s game in Cincinnati.
