The Atlanta Falcons have listed cornerback Mike Hughes and defensive lineman Ruke Orhorhoro as questionable for their upcoming game against the Minnesota Vikings. Hughes, who has been dealing with a neck injury, missed several games but participated fully in practice this week. Despite his participation, his status remains uncertain until game day.

Rookie defensive lineman Orhorhoro is also marked as questionable after being on injured reserve due to an ankle injury. He returned to practice recently, which started his 21-day window to rejoin the active roster. After limited participation earlier in the week, he was a full participant in Friday's practice before the team's trip to Minnesota.

In other developments, inside linebackers Nate Landman and Troy Andersen were full participants in Friday's practice session despite previous injuries. Wide receiver Darnell Mooney was limited due to an Achilles issue; however, head coach Raheem Morris indicated that Mooney would not receive a game designation.
