Let go by Atlanta
Graham was waived by the Falcons on Wednesday, Tori McElhaney of the team's official site reports.

Gets four tackles in 2025 debut
Graham recorded four tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 20-10 loss at San Francisco.
Analysis: Finally back in playing shape off of a calf injury that landed him on injured reserve prior to Week 1, Graham was given a notable role on the defensive line right off the bat Sunday, playing 29 of the Falcons' 66 defensive snaps. He'll be trying to earn an even more favorable snap share in a Week 8 matchup versus the Dolphins.

Comes off IR
The Falcons activated Graham (calf) from injured reserve Saturday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Graham was a full participant in practice all week, and while he's still listed as questionable, the 2021 fifth-rounder appears to be on track to make his 2025 regular-season debut against the 49ers on Sunday. He appeared in 10 regular-season games for the Falcons in 2024 and logged 12 tackles (six solo).

Estimated as full participant
Graham (calf) was estimated to be a full participant in practice Wednesday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Full practice Thursday
Graham (calf) was a full participant at practice Thursday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official website reports.
Analysis: Graham was able to return to practice Thursday for the first time since being placed on injured reserve in late August with a calf injury. The defensive lineman has now opened a 21-day practice window, and if he's not activated from IR in that period of time, he'll remain sidelined for the rest of the season.

Ready to practice
Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said Tuesday that Graham (calf) will return to practice this week, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Graham has missed the Falcons' first four games of the season due to a calf injury, which he suffered during an Aug. 12 practice. Atlanta will open a 21-day evaluation window for the veteran defensive lineman, so the team will have until Week 9 to potentially add him back to the 53-man roster. He'll provide depth along the defensive front once he returns to action.

Starting season on IR
The Falcons placed Graham (undisclosed) on injured reserve Tuesday with a designation to return, Terrin Waack, Will McFadden and Tori McElhaney of the team's official site report.
Analysis: The nature and severity of Graham's injury isn't clear, but the 2021 fifth-rounder will be required to miss at least the first four games of the season. His first chance to make his 2025 regular-season debut will be Week 6 against the Bills on Monday, Oct. 13.

Back with Atlanta
The Falcons re-signed Graham (pectoral) to a one-year deal Monday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Graham missed the final seven games of the Falcons' 2024 campaign due to a pectoral injury, but his re-signing Monday suggests he's now recovered from the issue. The 26-year-old from Texas has served as one of Atlanta's top rotational defensive ends since entering the league in 2021, having recorded 84 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and one forced fumble over 39 appearances. With Graham staying in Atlanta, he's expected to play a similar role in 2025.

Goes on IR due to pectoral injury
The Falcons placed Graham (pectoral) on injured reserve Saturday, Daniel Flick of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Graham suffered a pectoral injury in Week 10 against the Saints, which caused him to miss practice all week. Now that he's on IR, Graham will be forced to miss at least the next four regular-season games, making Week 16 against the Giants on Sunday, Dec. 22 the earliest he can return. Brandon Dorlus and Kentavius Street will serve as the Falcons' rotational defensive ends behind starters Grady Jarrett and Zach Harrison.

Ruled out for Week 11
Graham (pectoral) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Broncos, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Graham was unable to practice all week after sustaining a pectoral injury in the Falcons' Week 10 loss to the Saints, so it's no surprise he won't play in Week 11. With the Texas product sidelined Sunday, expect Brandon Dorlus to see additional work as a rotational defensive end.

Won't return to Week 10 contest
Graham (pectoral) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Saints, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Graham was hurt while making a tackle in the second quarter and has since been ruled out from returning. The tackle on which he got hurt was his only stop of the contest. With Graham done for the remainder of Sunday, Zach Harrison could be asked to play more than his usual allotment of defensive snaps.

Leaves game with pectoral injury
Graham (pectoral) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Saints, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Graham was able to walk off the field under his own power and was diagnosed with a pectoral injury after being looked at by trainers. While Graham is sidelined, Kentavius Street should see more rotational snaps at defensive end behind starters Zach Harrison and Grady Jarrett.

Limited impact in 2023
Graham finished 2023 with 23 tackles (six solo), 1.0 sacks and one forced fumble in 15 appearances.
Analysis: Graham played in a career-high 15 games and notched his first career sack and forced fumble in 2023. He is heading into the final year of his rookie year and figures to garner a similar rotational role in 2024.

Practicing Wednesday
Graham (knee) participated in practice at Wednesday's OTA session, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Analysis: Graham suffered an MCL injury in November and missed the final six games of the 2022 season, but he appears to be ready to go ahead of the 2023 campaign. The defensive lineman compiled 34 tackles and a fumble recovery over 11 contests with Atlanta last season and will likely serve as a top reserve option behind Calais Campbell and Grady Jarrett in his third year with the Falcons.

Done for year
Graham (knee) will not return this season, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Graham has been on IR since Nov. 21 and was set to undergo a procedure to repair an MCL injury Nov. 23, so this news isn't necessarily surprising. The second-year pro's season will conclude with 11 games played and 34 tackles (15 solo) recorded. He'll now focus on being ready to return next season.

Moved to IR
The Falcons placed Graham (knee) on the injured reserve Monday.
Analysis: Graham was already expected to miss at least one week after he was forced out during Sunday's win over the Bears with a knee injury. While the nature of this issue is still unclear, the 23-year-old defensive lineman will be forced to sit out until at least Week 17 while recovering on IR. Graham has recorded 34 tackles (15 solo) and one fumble recovery over 11 starts this season, and his absence will likely leave Timmy Horne and Jaleel Johnson, the latter having been claimed off waivers Monday,…read more

Will likely miss some time
Coach Arthur Smith said Monday that Graham (knee) is "out" for the short term, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Analysis: Smith's comment would suggest Graham probably won't play in Week 12 at Washington and that he may even have to sit out beyond then. If the sophomore fifth-rounder does miss time, Matt Dickerson would be in line to see more work along Atlanta's front three.

Returns Sunday
Graham (knee) re-entered during the second half of Sunday's game against the 49ers, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Analysis: Graham was replaced by Tim Horne after exiting at some point against San Francisco, though the starting defensive end appears to be doing fine after coming back in the game. Graham played at least 50 percent of Atlanta's defensive snaps in each of the first five games after stepping into a starting role this season.

Exits against San Fran
Graham is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the 49ers with a knee injury, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Graham started his sixth game of the season Sunday. The second-year defensive end recorded 13 tackles over the first five weeks, and his absence should leave Matt Dickerson and Timmy Horne to play increased roles opposite Grady Jarrett.

Analysis: Graham appeared in 13 games during his rookie season with the Falcons, seeing steady snaps along their defensive line. What is causing Graham to be limited is unknown, but once he is healthy he should contribute in a similar rotational role next season.
