Judon (hamstring) was a full participant in practice Thursday, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports. Judon has been dealing with a hamstring issue off and on and played through the injury in Week 5. After logging a limited session Wednesday, the Grand Valley State product was able to put in a full session Thursday, signifying he'll suit up Sunday against the Panthers.

Judon (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. Judon appears to have aggravated his hamstring issue during the Falcons' Week 5 win over the Buccaneers. However, the veteran edge rusher was still able to record two total tackles and one pass defended across 31 defensive snaps. Judon is expected to play in Sunday's matchup against the Panthers unless he downgrades to no participation either Thursday or Friday.

Judon (hamstring) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Saints and is expected to play. Judon was limited in practice early in the week but is good to go for a big divisional tilt. The 32-year-old has logged 15 tackles (eight solo), including 1.5 sacks, and three QB hits in his first three games with the Falcons following his summer acquisition from New England.

Judon finished with six tackles (three solo), including a sack, during Monday's 22-21 win over the Eagles. After recording 0.5 sacks in the season opener, Judon got his first solo sack in Week 2. The veteran was the only Falcon who got to Jalen Hurts in the backfield during Monday Night Football, which is precisely why Atlanta traded for Judon this offseason. In 2021 and 2022, Judon totaled 28 sacks for the Patriots, and he's currently on pace to reach double-digit sacks for the third time in his career.

Judon returned to practice Thursday, Eric Edholm of NFL.com reports. Judon had a heated exchange with head coach Jerod Mayo on Monday and is also known to be looking for a new contract. However, the two sides appear to have put the dispute in the rearview mirror for now, with a conversation taking place Wednesday. "I have a great relationship with Matthew, I have a great relationship with the players," Mayo said. "But we're moving forward and trying to work it out."
