The Atlanta Falcons' upset of the Los Angeles Rams on Monday night continued to muddy the waters in the NFC South. The champion of that division and the AFC North are the only remaining playoff spots open in the NFL heading into the regular-season finale.

The Atlanta Falcons have added wide receiver Darnell Mooney to their Week 18 injury report ahead of their season finale against the Saints.

The Falcons are looking to finish strong with a win over the Saints but three of the team's top offensive weapons are dealing with injuries.

The Green Bay Packers are signing former Atlanta Falcons quarterback Desmond Ridder to their 16-man practice squad, according to a report from NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. The Packers are dealing with multiple injuries at the quarterback position and Ridder can provide some depth as they prepare for the postseason.

A win by the Panthers over the Bucs on Saturday clinches the NFC South. If the Bucs win, the Falcons-Saints game on Sunday comes into play.

Currently, Blank is reportedly talking to former Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan about a potentially “significant” front-office role. If Ryan takes the job, his first order of business (if he accepts the assignment) should be to diagnose the source of the day/night disconnect that has derailed what could have been a very good season.

The Atlanta Falcons released an estimated injury report on Wednesday as they kicked off preparation for their Week 18 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Wide receiver Drake London and tight end Kyle Pitts were listed as limited participants for Wednesday's walk-through.

Dan Quinn once saved his job as Falcons coach by winning four games in a row to end a losing season. The 2019 Falcons finished 7-9 for the second year in a row with Quinn as head coach, but Arthur Blank decided the strong finish was a sign that Quinn was turning things around.

The Falcons placed cornerback Mike Hughes on injured reserve, the team announced on Thursday. Hughes injured his ankle in the first quarter of the Falcons’ Week 15 win over the Buccaneers. He has missed the Falcons’ past three games. C.J. Henderson and Cobee Bryant have seen more reps in Hughes’ absence.
