    The Atlanta Falcons are banged up at a couple of positions entering their Week 6 matchup against the Carolina Panthers, however, they got some good news on Friday’s injury report.

    Running back Bijan Robinson (hamstring) was a full participant after being limited on Thursday. Wide receiver Darnell Mooney (knee) was also a full go on Friday after being limited the last two days.

    The team ruled out inside linebacker Troy Andersen for Sunday’s game due to a knee injury. Andersen also missed the team’s Week 5 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Look for rookie linebacker JD Bertrand to step in for Andersen against the Panthers.

    Nate Landman is another potential option, however, he has yet to be formally activated despite the Falcons opening his 21-day practice window on Monday. Landman practiced all three days this week and was listed as questionable on the team’s final injury report.
