Brinkley (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Monday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brinkley was expected to take over as Atlanta's long snapper in 2022 following the departure of Josh Harris to the Chargers. The 32-year-old has made 138 appearances over his first 10 NFL seasons, but the Falcons may opt to bring in a backup option if Brinkley's injury is considered serious.

Brinkley signed a one-year contract with the Falcons on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Brinkley is set to take over as Atlanta's long snapper in 2022 following the departure of Josh Harris to the Chargers. The 32-year-old has made 138 appearances over his first 10 NFL seasons.

Brinkley was signed to the active roster Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Brinkley was waived by the Titans earlier in the month but didn't have to wait long to find a new home. He had been elevated to the active roster ahead of Week 10 but now has an official spot on the roster with regular long snapper Aaron Brewer (broken arm) on IR.

The Titans waived Brinkley on Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brinkley appeared in 135 games as the Titans' long snapper since joining the team in 2012, but he's had his fair share of struggles this season. His departure should open up a road for Matt Overton to earn a promotion from the practice squad.

The Titans activated Brinkley from the reserve/COVID-19 list Sunday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brinkley should be available for Tuesday's game against the Bills if the game is played as planned. The 30-year-old is expected to resume long-snapping duties.

The Titans placed Brinkley on the reserve/COVID list Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brinkley either tested positive for the virus or came into contact with someone who did. He'll need to pass the proper protocols to return to team activities, and if he misses any games, Ben Jones will likely serve as the team's long snapper.

Brinkley (groin) wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report and is expected to be available for Sunday's game against Oakland.

EDGE Analysis

Brinkley will not return to being a reserve lineman in Tennessee, and he should be grateful that this injury didn't lead to his departure from the program.

Brinkley will likely miss this week of practice due to a groin injury, Paul Kuharsky of 104.5 The Zone reports.

EDGE Analysis

It remains relatively unclear as to when Brinkley suffered the groin injury that has been plaguing him, but any time missed could be detrimental for the fringe roster player. If Brinkley is unable to play in the team's second preseason game Saturday, it could all but end his time in Tennessee.
