The Atlanta Falcons completed their practice sessions for the week on Friday in preparation for hosting the Giants at Mercedes-Benz Stadium this Sunday. Wide receiver Drake London appeared on the team's injury report for the first time this week due to a knee injury. Despite being limited in practice, he did not receive a game designation, indicating his availability for Sunday's game.

Two players received game designations: outside linebacker Lorenzo Carter and wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge were both listed as questionable. Carter, who recently returned from injured reserve after a concussion, has been contributing significantly to the Falcons' defensive front. He played 43% of the defensive snaps in their last game against Las Vegas. Hodge has made an impact both as a reserve player on offense and notably on special teams, where he was named NFC's Special Teams Player of the Week following his performance against the Raiders.

Rookie receiver Casey Washington is officially ruled out for Week 16 as he continues through concussion protocol. Although limited in practice on Friday, he will not be active for Sunday's game.

The Falcons will release their final inactives list 90 minutes before Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

The full participation list includes Richie Grant (illness), Kaleb McGary (elbow), Ross Dwelley (ankle), and Demone Harris (illness/neck). Limited participants were Drake London (knee), Lorenzo Carter (groin), KhaDarel Hodge (ribs), and Casey Washington (concussion). Charlie Woerner did not participate due to rest unrelated to injury.
