Falcons' Brooks Reed out six weeks with groin injury
Atlanta Falcons linebacker Brooks Reed will miss six weeks after undergoing groin surgery.
What It Means:
Reed has a realistic chance of being placed on the injured reserve/designated for return list and miss the first eight weeks. Reed was slotted atop the depth chart at strong-side linebacker for the Falcons.
The Falcons ranked 28th in our schedule-adjusted Defensive Net Expected Points metric last season. Our algorithms projected Reed to finish the year with 87 tackles and 2.5 sacks prior to the injury. We place the Falcons as our 29th-ranked fantasy defense.
