Tyler Allgeier played 3 snaps and had 0 carries today. His prior career-low marks were 9 snaps and 3 carries (both in Week 1 earlier this season).
The Atlanta Falcons (6-4) have elevated two players from the practice squad ahead of Sunday’s road matchup against the Denver Broncos (5-5). Outside linebacker Khalid Kareem and defensive back Dane Cruikshank will join the 53-man roster in Week 11.
Since the team is thin at defensive back and outside linebacker, Kareem and Cruikshank could each get defensive reps along with special teams work during Sunday’s game.
The Falcons placed defensive lineman Ta’Quon Graham and outside linebacker James Smith-Williams on the injured reserve list while activating center Drew Dalman and linebacker Lorenzo Carter
Falcons cornerback Kevin King has been ruled out against the Denver Broncos, exiting Sunday’s contest with a head injury in the first quarter.
This does not bode well for the Falcons secondary, which is already thin with the absence of Dee Alford, Mike Hughes and Antonio Hamilton Sr., making things potentially easier on quarterback Bo Nix and company in the passing game.
King totaled one solo tackle in this contest before he was forced to the sideline. He came into the game with five combined tackles, two of which were solo
Falcons defensive lineman Zach Harrison was ruled out of Sunday’s contest against the Denver Broncos in the fourth quarter with a knee injury.
This marked the third injury of the game for an Atlanta team that came into the contest already banged up. Before Harrison went down, cornerback Kevin King was ruled out with a head injury early on and wide receiver Darnell Mooney was listed as questionable late in the second half with a hamstring injury.
Harrison, who was considered a potential breakout candidate ahead of the season, came into this game with 11 combined tackles, two of which were solo. He totaled one solo tackle and one assist before he was sidelined Sunday
Sean Payton knew the path to defeating the Falcons and staying in the playoff race meant finding a way to slow down running back Bijan Robinson.
Led by a physical defensive line, the Broncos didn’t just slow him down — they bottled him up.
A week after Robinson ran for 116 yards in a win over the Saints, the Broncos made Robinson nonexistent for the majority of Sunday’s 38-6 win at Empower Field at Mile High. The former Texas standout finished with just 12 carries for 35 yards — a key component to a dominant defensive outing
#Broncos rookie QB Bo Nix today vs. the Falcons - 28/33 - 307 yards - 4 TDs - 0 INTs - 145.0 passer rating Looked poised and confident all day. What a performance. pic.x.com/hJe9ex4nfq

Ankle is getting taped on the sideline. Didn't even go to the medical tent. Which is probably a good sign.
@JamesPalmerTV: Zach Allen was down on the field for the Broncos. Looks like he was trying to move is ankle around. Allen has been outstanding for Denver this season. Walked off on his own power.

The #broncos are just owning this #falcons defense. Nix with another TD pass. This time to Troy Franklin. 3 on the day. It's 28-6 Denver with 9:05 left in the third.
If you haven't noticed, Forsyth has been moved over a spot to the edge of the OL on FG.
@JamesPalmerTV: Just watched the final field goal kick for the #broncos during pregame warmups. Alex Forsyth was out there. Still a part of the FG unit.
Rookie quarterback Bo Nix was on a heater from the start Sunday afternoon. He threw touchdowns to Nate Adkins, Marvin Mims Jr. and Troy Franklin. He diced up the Falcons on third down and in general. He led a Denver offense that scored on five of its first seven possessions and barely broke stride. The Broncos controlled the game start to finish and Nix made a play whenever Denver needed one. Impressive stuff from the budding rookie of the year candidate. The young skill guys keep coming along, too, but this one featured a heavy dose of veterans Courtland Sutton and Javonte Williams
The Broncos only had one player listed as questionable on their injury report for Sunday's game against the Falcons, but the game-time call didn't go safety Brandon Jones's way.
Highlight: Quarterback Bo Nix strengthened his case for Offensive Rookie of the Year. On Sunday, he picked apart Atlanta’s defense, going 28 of 33 for 307 yards and four touchdowns. He set the tone in the first half, completing 17 of 19 passes for 192 yards and two touchdowns. But he wasn’t the only rookie that stood out. Wide receiver Devaughn Vele once again showed he can be a reliable target in the middle of the field. He finished with four catches for 66 yards and had a 33-yard reception in the second quarter. Rookie wideout Troy Franklin recorded his second touchdown reception of the season while edge rusher Jonah Elliss increased his sack total to three
Today, the Kansas City Chiefs are set to take on the Buffalo Bills in a highly anticipated Week 11 matchup that could have massive implications on the AFC playoffs.
Kansas City has a 9-0 record heading into its tilt against the 8-2 Bills and will have to overcome significant injuries to keep their perfect season intact.
The Chiefs narrowly escaped their first loss of the season last Sunday when linebacker Leo Chenal blocked a last-second field goal by Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz.
This week, Kansas City won’t have any margin for error if it intends to remain the NFL’s only undefeated team.
