Falcons' Xavier Watts: Totals seven stops in win Sunday
Watts notched seven tackles (three solo) and forced a fumble Sunday in a 29-20 Week 7 victory against the 49ers.
Watts missed just three defensive snaps, as he continues to be a key part of Atlanta's secondary. The second-year safety has posted seven or more tackles in four of his seven games so far this season and leads the Falcons with 44 tackles (including 0.5 sacks). He also has two defensed passes, including an interception.

Falcons' Jessie Bates: Impactful in Week 7 win
Bates registered nine tackles (two solo), two defensed passes (including an interception) and one forced fumble Sunday in a 29-20 victory over San Francisco.
Bates contributed in multiple ways during a big day for Atlanta's defense. He finished tied for second on the team with nine stops and picked off Brock Purdy midway through the third quarter as San Francisco was approaching the red zone. For good measure, Bates sealed the win by forcing a George Kittle fumble with less than a minute remaining in the contest. Bates' nine stops were a season high, and the interception was his first of the campaign.

Falcons' Harold Perkins: Posts nine stops Sunday
Perkins tallied nine tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 29-20 Week 7 win over the 49ers.
Perkins' tackle total was tied for second on Atlanta behind fellow rookie Kendal Daniels. Perkins finished with his second-highest number of stops so far, trailing only the 10 tackles he recorded Week 4 in New Orleans. Perkins made his first NFL start Sunday, as Divine Deablo was sidelined due to a forearm injury.

Falcons' Kendal Daniels: Huge performance in Week 7 win
Daniels recorded 11 tackles (nine solo), an interception and a fumble recovery Sunday in a 29-20 victory versus San Francisco.
That Daniels was even on the field Sunday was a victory in itself after he was carted off the field and transported to the hospital due to a neck injury one week prior. The talented rookie not only suited up against San Francisco, he was a central part of sending the 49ers to their first loss, as he led Atlanta in tackles and essentially sealed the win in the fourth quarter by intercepting Brock Purdy with less than three minutes remaining and then recovering a George Kittle fumble with under a minute left. The memorable effort included Daniels' first career interception, first career recovered fumble and career-high single-game tackle tally.

Falcons' Zachariah Branch: Huge kickoff return in Week 7 win
Branch brought in one of two targets for nine yards, logged an eight-yard carry and returned his lone kickoff for 61 yards during the Falcons' 29-20 win over the 49ers on Sunday.
Branch saw minimal usage offensively, but he made an impact early with a 61-yard kickoff return early in the first quarter, with the Falcons' offense converting that opportunity into a 39-yard field goal five plays later. It was a solid bounce back from his Week 6 performance against the Chicago, when he lost two fumbles. The rookie third-rounder has a 10-64-0 receiving line on 12 targets through seven regular-season games, and Branch's role will continue to be a complementary one while he's situated behind Drake London, Kyle Pitts and Bijan Robinson in the pecking order. The Falcons will hit the road for Week 8 against the Buccaneers on Nov. 1.

Falcons' Austin Hooper: Two catches in win
Hooper caught both of his targets for 21 yards in the Falcons' 29-20 win over the 49ers on Sunday.
Hooper played 29 offensive snaps and four special-teams snaps in Sunday's contest. The No. 3 tight end was utilized as a blocker and pass catcher but was outshone by No. 4 option Nick Muse, who caught a key touchdown as the team took down the undefeated 49ers.

Falcons' Jahan Dotson: Only one catch in Week 7 victory
Dotson caught one pass on three targets for six yards during Sundays' 29-20 win over San Francisco.
Dotson's lone catch came late in the second quarter as part of a 14-play, 56-yard drive that ended with a 33-yard field goal by Nick Folk as time expired. Dotson also drew a defensive pass interference penalty late in the third quarter, but it was an otherwise quiet night for the fifth-year pro, whose 38 offensive snaps were second-most among Falcons wide receivers behind Drake London (55). Dotson has two catches or fewer in six of the first seven games of the regular season and has a 12-242-2 receiving line on 26 targets this year. The Falcons hit the road in Week 8 for an NFC South tilt against the Buccaneers, whose defense stifled Panthers QB Bryce Young in a Week 7 win for Tampa Bay.

Falcons' Nick Muse: Catches touchdown in upset win
Muse caught both of his targets for two yards and a touchdown in the Falcons' 29-20 win over the 49ers on Sunday.
Muse played 21 offensive snaps and 20 special-teams snaps in Sunday's game. The No. 4 tight end proved that versatility can lead to production, making the most of his red zone opportunities and cashing in for a key score as the Falcons broke the 49ers' undefeated streak.

Falcons' Khalil Herbert: Reverts to practice squad
Herbert reverted to the Falcons' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Herbert was elevated to the active roster for Sunday's 29-20 win against the 49ers, when he served as Bijan Robinson's backup due to the absence of Brian Robinson (hamstring). Herbert was on the field for only 11 of the Falcons' 68 snaps (16.2 percent), although he nearly nearly found the end zone early in the second half on a 19-yard catch, but he was ruled out of bounds just short of the goal line. The sixth-year running back added two carries for nine yards and turned two kickoff returns into 65 yards, and he could be elevated for Week 8 against the Buccaneers on Nov. 1 depending on the health of the Falcons' backfield.

Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Another TD in Week 7 win
Pitts brought in all five targets for 22 yards and a touchdown in the Falcons' 29-20 win over the 49ers on Sunday.
Pitts tied for second in receptions and targets for the Falcons on the afternoon, but he averaged just 4.4 yards per catch. However, the veteran tight end did score for the third consecutive game, recording a five-yard touchdown catch with just under nine minutes remaining in the third quarter. Pitts' production will inevitably fluctuate week to week, but he's clearly established himself as a reliable red-zone target for Michael Penix heading into a Week 8 road matchup against the Buccaneers next Sunday.

Falcons' Michael Penix: Three TDs in Week 7 win
Penix completed 25 of 34 passes for 213 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions and added five carries for minus-1 yard in the Falcons' 29-20 win over the 49ers on Sunday. He also recovered a fumble.
Penix put together a solid, mistake-free effort that saw him toss a trio of touchdown passes for the second straight games. The 2024 first-round pick connected with Nick Muse (one yard), Kyle Pitts (five yards) and Drake London (21 yards) for his trio of scoring strikes, the latter two coming in the second half. Penix also completed over 71.0 percent of his passes for the third time in five games this season, and he'll take a pristine 9:1 TD:INT and 1,157 passing yards into a Week 8 road matchup against the Buccaneers next Sunday.

Falcons' Drake London: Paces pass catchers in win
London secured seven of 10 targets for 66 yards and a touchdown in the Falcons' 29-20 win over the 49ers on Sunday.
London contributed team-high totals in receptions, receiving yardage and targets on the afternoon, and he added his first touchdown of the season on a 21-yard grab on the first play of the fourth quarter. While the 9.4 yards per reception he averaged Sunday represented a season low, London is still averaging a career-best 16.2 yards per reception and has three straight double-digit target tallies heading into a Week 8 road divisional clash against the Buccaneers next Sunday.

Falcons' Nick Folk: Makes three field goals in win
Folk made all three of his field-goal tries while going 2-for-3 on PATs during Sunday's 29-20 win over the 49ers.
Folk was able to match his season high in field-goal makes, converting attempts from 39 and 33 yards in the first half before adding a 31-yarder to put the team up 29-20 with 1:56 left in regulation. The 41-year-old continues to be an effective short-range option for Atlanta, going 11-for-12 on field-goal attempts from less than 50 yards over seven contests this season.

Falcons' Bijan Robinson: Solid production in Week 7 win
Robinson rushed 20 times for 63 yards and brought in all five targets for 59 yards in the Falcons' 29-20 win over the 49ers on Sunday.
As his rushing line suggests, Robinson was mostly held in check by a stout 49ers front. The All-Pro running back's longest run of the day went for only 12 yards, but Robinson did find a way to make up some of the fantasy production as a receiver. Robinson finished tied for second in receptions and targets while checking in as the runner-up in receiving yards for the Falcons on the afternoon, and his numbers in the first two categories were his second highest of the campaign. Robinson has seen a downturn in opportunity and production since rushing for 339 combined yards in Weeks 3 and 4, and he'll look to reverse that trend in a Week 8 road matchup against a tough Buccaneers run defense.

Falcons' Drake London: Returns to Sunday's game
London (head) was cleared to return to Sunday's game against the 49ers, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports.
London was being evaluated for a concussion in the blue medical tent. However, it was a short time on the sidelines for the star wide receiver, who was quickly cleared to return in the third quarter.
