Falcons' Jalon Walker: Moves to injured reserve
The Falcons officially placed Walker (knee) on injured reserve Thursday, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.
Walker was carted off the field at the end of Tuesday's practice, and he was diagnosed with a torn ACL in his left knee a day later, thereby putting an end to his second campaign. He made an impact as a 2025 first-round pick last year, totaling 36 tackles, including 5.5 sacks, two forced fumbles, one fumble recovery and one pass defense in 15 regular-season games. The likes of Cameron Thomas, Samson Ebukam and Azeez Ojulari are poised for more pass-rush reps alongside starter James Pearce this season.

Falcons' Jalon Walker: ACL tear confirmed
Walker has been diagnosed with an ACL tear, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
As suspected, Walker will need surgery and is set to miss the entire season. Coming off a 5.5-sack rookie campaign, Walker was expected to start at outside linebacker for the Falcons this year. With fellow pass rusher and 2025 draft pick James Pearce facing serious legal issues, Atlanta's pass rush looks to be in poor shape with the season just five weeks away.

Falcons' Jalon Walker: Torn ACL likely
Walker is believed to have suffered a torn ACL during Tuesday's practice, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
On what ended up being the last play of Tuesday's session, Walker remained on the ground following a pass-rush rep and was carted off the field due to a left leg injury, per Josh Kendall of The Athletic. Walker will undergo tests to determine the nature of the issue, but if a torn ACL is confirmed, his second season would be over before it started. As a rookie first-rounder in 2025, he racked up 5.5 sacks among his 36 tackles in 15 regular-season games.

Falcons' Jalon Walker: Carted off with apparent leg injury
Walker was carted off the field with an apparent left leg injury at Tuesday's practice, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Walker went down in the backfield while rushing the passer during a two-minute drill. Once he was down, the whole team gathered around him, and the Falcons ended practice with the injury. It sounds ominous and would be a massive blow to Atlanta's pass rush, as 2025 first-rounders Walker and James Pearce are expected to do most of the heavy lifting off the edge for the Falcons this season.
