News

  • Going onto IR

    Atlanta placed Andersen (shoulder) on its injured reserve list Tuesday, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: As was feared after Coach Arthur Smith made a discouraging statement regarding Andersen's shoulder early in the week, he'll now have to spend at least Atlanta's next four games in recovery. Nate Landman figures to step in as a starter until Andersen is ready to return.

  • Injury may be serious

    Coach Arthur Smith said Monday that the arm/shoulder injury Andersen sustained during Sunday's 20-6 loss at Detroit "didn't look good," Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: The specifics of the issue Andersen is dealing with are still unknown, but his coach's comments don't bode well for his recovery timeline. It will be worth watching whether Andersen ends up moving to injured reserve in the coming days.

  • Suffers shoulder injury Sunday

    Andersen (shoulder) recorded nine tackles (eight solo) during Sunday's 20-6 loss to the Lions.

    Analysis: Andersen, who missed Week 2 due to a concussion, played 90 percent of the team's defensive snaps in Week 3 before suffering a shoulder injury, per D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. In his first two games as a full-time starter, the second-year linebacker has recorded 19 tackles and a half-sack. If he can stay on the field, Andersen has the ability to rack up IDP points quickly, but his health is emerging as a red flag thus far. The severity of his current injury remains…read more

  • Carted off field

    Andersen (arm) was carted off the field during Atlanta's 20-6 loss to Detroit on Sunday, Tori McElhaney of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Andersen was hurt late in the fourth quarter and did not return to the game. Nate Landman took over for the injured 24-year-old and should continue to do so if Andersen ends up missing time.

  • Clears protocols

    Andersen has cleared the league's concussion protocols and practiced in full Thursday.

    Analysis: Andersen was unable to play in Sunday's win over the Packers, but the second-year linebacker has now logged back-to-back full practices and should be considered good to go for Week 3 against the Lions. He should return to his role as one of two starting inside linebackers for Atlanta's 3-4 defense.

  • Practices fully Wednesday

    Andersen (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: It's unclear if Andersen has cleared the league's concussion protocol, but this puts him on track to return for Week 3 against the Lions after missing Week 2. Nathan Landman started and played 98 percent of the defensive snaps in Andersen's absence this past Sunday versus Green Bay.

  • Won't play Week 2

    Andersen (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 2 game against the Packers, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: A 2022 second-round pick, Andersen is in his first season as a full-time starter for the Falcons. He played 99 percent of the defensive snaps in the season opener versus Carolina, recording 10 tackles, including 0.5 sacks, but reported concussion symptoms and will miss Week 2. Nate Landman is expected to start in his place.

  • Remains sidelined

    Andersen (concussion) did not practice Thursday, Amna Subhan of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Andersen may still be in the early stages of the league's five-step protocol to gain clearance to return to play, which could be bad news for his chances to suit up for Week 2 against the Packers. If the Montana State product is unable to go, Tae Davis would likely be the beneficiary of an increased role Sunday.

  • Unable to practice

    Andersen (concussion) is not practicing Wednesday, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Andersen entered the league's concussion protocols Wednesday, which will keep him off the practice field and potentially out of the team's Week 2 contest against the Packers. If the Montana State product is unable to clear the league's five-step protocols to gain clearance to play, Tae Davis would likely be the benefactor in an increased role against Green Bay.

  • In concussion protocol

    Andersen was placed in the NFL's concussion protocol Wednesday, Scott Bair of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Per coach Arthur Smith, Andersen didn't feel right when he came into the facility Tuesday. Andersen will need to clear the league's five-step concussion protocol in order to suit up against the Packers on Sunday. Tae Davis would likely step into a starting role if Andersen's unable to play.

  • Impresses as full-time starter

    Andersen recorded 10 tackles (three solo), including one for loss, and a half-sack during Sunday's 24-10 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: Andersen took over as a full-time starter late last year, and the second-year pro is expected to take a major leap in Year 2. He tied Jessie Bates with a team-high 10 stops and made a few plays in the backfield, as well. Andersen is a strong IDP option moving forward, but the youngster may have some hiccups along the way.

  • Makes most of rookie campaign

    Andersen tallied 69 tackles (40 solo), one forced fumble and one pass defense across 17 appearances during the 2022 campaign.

    Analysis: Andersen quickly carved out a role in Atlanta's defense during his rookie campaign and eventually overtook Mykal Walker as a starter to end the season. The 2022 second-round pick played at least 80 percent of the Falcons' defensive snaps in five games and totaled 34 tackles during those contests, including a career-high 13 stops against San Francisco in Week 6. Given his successful rookie campaign, it's safe to presume Andersen will have a significant role in Atlanta's defense to begin 2023,…read more

  • Seven stops in loss

    Andersen recorded seven tackles (five solo) during Sunday's 21-18 loss to New Orleans.

    Analysis: Andersen drew the start over Mykal Walker and notched his most tackles in a game since Week 6, when Walker was sidelined with an injury. If Andersen continues to draw starts, he could emerge as a solid IDP option during the final three games of the regular season.

  • Back in action

    Andersen (ankle) has returned to Sunday's game against the Steelers, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Andersen temporarily exited the Week 13 matchup, but he's quickly returned to the field. He had four tackles before leaving the game.

  • Questionable to return

    Andersen is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Steelers due to an ankle injury, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Andersen sustained an apparent ankle injury during the Week 13 matchup versus Pittsburgh, and it's currently uncertain if he'll be able to return. Mykal Walker and Rashaan Evans should handle an increased workload for the time being.

  • Productive day in first start

    Andersen recorded 12 tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 28-14 win over the 49ers.

    Analysis: With starter Mykal Walker having been ruled out for Sunday's game against San Fransisco, Andersen was given the start at linebacker and tied with teammate Rashaan Evans for a team-high 12 tackles in Week 6. If Walker is unable to gain medical clearance ahead of next Sunday's contest versus the Bengals, the rookie second-rounder should once again serve as a key contributor in Atlanta's defensive unit.

  • Set to make first career start

    With Mykal Walker (groin) ruled out for Week 6, Andersen is in line to make his first career NFL start Sunday against the 49ers, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: Andersen, a rookie second-round pick, saw an increased role after Walker left the team's Week 5 loss early and finished with season highs in tackles (five) and defensive snaps (27). He'll draw the start alongside Rashaan Evans in the middle of Atlanta's defense and will likely be in store for another productive game against San Francisco's run-first offense.
