  • Falcons' Jake Matthews: Good to go for Week 9

    Matthews (ankle) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against New England, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

    Matthews has been dealing with an ankle injury since Week 6, but it hasn't yet caused him to miss any contests. Despite finishing this week with a pair of limited practices, he's set to serve in his usual role as Atlanta's starting left tackle Sunday.

  • Falcons' Jake Matthews: Still working through ankle injury

    Matthews (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Matthews sustained an ankle injury during the Falcons' Week 6 win over the Bills, but he was cleared to play in Weeks 7 and 8. He popped up on Thursday's injury report after practicing in full Wednesday, so his participation in Friday's practice will indicate his chances of playing against the Patriots on Sunday. Michael Jerrell would likely take over as the starting left tackle if Matthews is not cleared to play Week 9.

  • Falcons' Jake Matthews: Green light to play Week 7

    Matthews (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Matthews missed the first two practices of the week due to an ankle injury, but he earned the questionable tag for Week 7 after logging a limited session Friday. He was able to go through Sunday's pregame warmups without suffering a setback, and he has been cleared to play and start at left tackle.

  • Falcons' Jake Matthews: Could play Sunday

    Matthews (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the 49ers, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

    Matthews began Atlanta's week of practice with consecutive DNPs due to an ankle injury, but after logging a limited session Friday, he's got a chance to return Sunday. However, if the veteran offensive lineman is forced to miss the Week 7 contest, expect Michael Jerrell to step in and start at left tackle.

  • Falcons' Jake Matthews: Still hampered by ankle injury

    Matthews was estimated as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Matthews suffered an ankle injury in Monday's win over Buffalo. It's not surprising that he is still suffering from the issue two days later, though Atlanta didn't have an actual practice Wednesday. Matthews has two days to get back on the field for a chance to suit up in Week 7 against the 49ers.

  • Falcons' Jake Matthews: Knocked out with ankle injury

    Matthews will not return to Monday's game against the Bills due to an ankle injury, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

  • Falcons' Jake Matthews: Signs two-year extension

    Matthews and the Falcons agreed on a two-year, $45 million contract extension with $38 million guaranteed Sunday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Matthews now will stick around Atlanta for two more years after spending the first 11 seasons of his NFL career with the team. The left tackle has not missed a game since his rookie season in 2014, proving to be one of the most durable players in the league.
