Lindstrom (knee) is questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Cowboys, William McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports. Lindstrom suffered a knee injury in the team's Week 8 win over the Buccaneers, but the team opted to keep him on the sidelines even though he was cleared to return to the game. The 27-year-old seems likely to play in Week 9, but if he is ultimately ruled out, Kyle Hinton would likely draw the start at right guard versus Dallas.

Lindstrom (knee) didn't practice Wednesday, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports. Lindstrom was cleared to return to Sunday's win over the Buccaneers after exiting earlier with a knee injury, so Wednesday's DNP is likely precautionary. However, if the 27-year-old offensive lineman is unable to upgrade to limited work either Thursday or Friday, he could miss Week 9's matchup against the Cowboys.

Lindstrom agreed to a restructured contract with the Falcons on Thursday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Lindstrom converted part of his $12.5 million salary into a signing bonus in order to create cap room for the Falcons' additions of Matthew Judon and Justin Simmons over the last 24 hours.

Lindstrom (ankle) will play Sunday against the Bears. Lindstrom missed Week 15 but was back out there last Sunday against the Colts. The 2019 first-rounder logged a pair of limited practices to start the week but finished with a full session Friday and is ready to go versus Chicago.

Lindstrom (ankle) was a full participant in Friday's practice and does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Colts. Lindstrom started the week with back-to-back limited practice sessions before participating in full Friday. He'll reclaim his starting right tackle role Sunday.
