Falcons' Freeman, Bryant likely out for Week 7
Matthew Emmons / USA TODAY Sports
Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn told reporters Monday that running back Devonta Freeman will likely miss his team's Week 7 matchup with the New York Giants with a foot injury.
Quinn also expects kicker Matt Bryant to miss next Monday's game with a hamstring injury. The veteran suffered the injury on a 57-yard field goal that helped secure the Falcons' win Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
It will be the fourth missed game by Freeman, who's also been battling a groin injury.
With Tevin Coleman and Ito Smith performing solidly in Freeman's absence and a bye week upcoming in Week 8, it appears Atlanta is being cautious with its star back.
