The Atlanta Falcons have released their list of inactive players for the Week 11 game against the Denver Broncos. As expected, the list includes players who were already ruled out in Friday's game report. Notable absences include nickel Dee Alford, cornerback Mike Hughes, and tight end Charlie Woerner.
On Saturday, the Falcons made several roster adjustments that will affect Sunday's game. Center Drew Dalman and outside linebacker Lorenzo Carter were activated from injured reserve. In corresponding moves, defensive linemen Ta'Quon Graham and James Smith-Williams were placed on injured reserve. To bolster their secondary depth, the Falcons signed cornerback Natrone Brooks to the 53-man roster.
A significant development for this week is rookie defensive lineman Brandon Dorlus being active for the first time this season. With Graham and Smith-Williams sidelined, Dorlus was added to the active roster to provide additional depth on defense. Dorlus was selected as the Falcons' No. 109 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft after playing college football at Oregon.
The complete list of inactive players for Week 11 includes:
- CB Dee Alford
- CB Mike Hughes
- CB Antonio Hamilton Sr.
- ILB JD Bertrand
- ILB Troy Andersen
- T Brandon Parker
- TE Charlie Woerner
