Terrell (hamstring) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated injury report, per Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com.
EDGE Analysis

Terrell (hamstring) has been ruled out for the Falcons' Week 9 contest against the Chargers, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Terrell will miss a second game in a row this week after suffering a hamstring injury in Week 7 versus the Bengals. With the cornerback unavailable, Rashad Fenton and Isaiah Oliver will likely step into more significant roles again Sunday against Los Angeles.

Terrell (hamstring) was a non-participant during Wednesday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
Terrell was ruled out for Week 8 due to a hamstring injury he picked up a week prior and will remain sidelined to start Week 9 prep. The Falcons' top cornerback will have two more opportunities to practice before the team needs to make a decision on his availability for Sunday's matchup against the Chargers.

Terrell (hamstring) won't play Sunday against the Panthers, Michael Rothstein of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Terrell will sit out after injuring his hamstring in the Week 7 loss to Cincinnati. The cornerback's absence could create more opportunities for Carolina's No. 1 wide receiver DJ Moore against a Falcons secondary that lacks depth. Terrell will shift his focus on healing up for Atlanta's Week 9 game against the Chargers.

Terrell (hamstring) won't be available to practice Wednesday, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
Terrell suffered a hamstring injury in Week 7 versus the Bengals and is week-to-week according to head coach Arthur Smith. He'll likely have to return to practice in some form Thursday to have a shot at playing Sunday against the Panthers. If Terrell can't go in the contest, Dee Alford (hamstring) and Darren Hall could step into more significant roles.

Coach Arthur Smith labeled Terrell (hamstring) week-to-week, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Terrell's hamstring injury appears to be more severe than that of fellow Falcons cornerback Dee Alford, whom Smith termed day-to-day. Both cornerbacks were injured in Atlanta's 35-17 loss to Cincinnati. If Terrell can't play against the Panthers in Week 8, that would open up more space for Carolina's No. 1 receiver DJ Moore.

Terrell (hamstring) will not return Sunday against the Bengals, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis

Terrell (thigh) was listed as a full participant in Thursday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
Terrell was forced out of the Falcons' 28-14 win over the 49ers on Sunday with an apparent thigh injury, but his full activity level during Thursday's session indicates that the issue is no longer a concern. The 24-year-old cornerback recorded 28 tackles, five passes defensed and one fumble recovery through Atlanta's first six games, but he'll face the near-impossible task of covering Cincinnati receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins on Sunday.

Terrell (thigh) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the 49ers, William McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Terrell recorded four tackles before picking up a thigh injury at some point Sunday. The 2020 first-round pick totaled 24 tackles and four passes defended over the first five games of the season, and his absence will likely leave Dee Alford to step into an every-down role alongside fellow cornerback Casey Hayward.

Terrell notched nine tackles (six solo) and a pass deflection in Sunday's 31-27 loss to the Rams.
EDGE Analysis
The lockdown cornerback notched a season-high nine tackles, giving him 14 total across two games. Terrell also forced a field goal by deflecting a third-down pass intended for Copper Kupp at the beginning of the fourth quarter. The 2020 first-round pick is one of Atlanta's most disruptive defenders, but unless he can maintain his high-tackle volume, he'll likely be a risky IDP option on a weekly basis.
