The Atlanta Falcons have been busy making roster moves ahead of their Week 2 'Sunday Night Football' matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. The game is set for Sunday at 8:20 p.m. ET in Minneapolis.
Falcons Roster Changes
Here's a breakdown of the Falcons' transactions:
- Jordan Fuller to Injured Reserve: Safety Jordan Fuller has been placed on injured reserve due to a knee injury. Fuller missed practice all week and was officially ruled out on Friday. He played sparingly in the Week 1 loss to the Buccaneers.
- David Sills V Signed to 53-Man Roster: Wide receiver David Sills V has been signed to the active roster. Sills was initially on the 53-man roster after training camp but was later released and signed to the practice squad.
- Parker Romo Elevated: Kicker Parker Romo has been elevated from the practice squad to the active roster. This move comes after Younghoe Koo missed a game-tying field goal in Week 1. Koo will not travel with the team to Minnesota.
DFS Picks for Falcons vs. Vikings
Looking for Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) plays for the game? Here are some recommendations:
- Jordan Mason (Vikings RB): As the likely lead back, Mason offers upside, especially in FanDuel scoring.

The Vikings are favored by 3.5 points, with an over/under of 44.5 points. It should be an exciting game!
