Batson was cut from the Falcons' practice squad Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Batson's departure from the team comes after reports that he was arrested Saturday morning on five charges, as detailed by Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com.

Batson joined the Falcons' practice squad Wednesday, Tori McElhaney of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Batson went unclaimed on waivers after being cut Tuesday, enabling Atlanta to add him to the practice squad. He could be elevated to the main roster during the season if injuries strike Atlanta's receiving corps.

Batson was cut by the Falcons on Tuesday, Jeff Schultz of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Batson signed with the Falcons in June after undergoing season-ending knee surgery in October, but he failed to make their final roster. The wide receiver caught five passes for 28 yards while returning two punts and a kickoff for a combined 29 yards. Batson will likely return to the Falcons' practice squad if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Batson (knee) was active at training camp and competing for return duties Tuesday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Batson suffered a season-ending ACL tear last October while with the Titans. Despite the injury, Batson signed with the Falcons in June and appears to be fully recovered. The 26-year-old recorded 301 return yards over his last 16 games in Tennessee.

Batson signed with Atlanta on Wednesday just seven months after undergoing season-ending ACL surgery in October, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Batson recorded two catches for 15 yards and one touchdown over four games before being placed on the Titans' injured reserve in mid-October. The 5-foot-8 wideout will reunite with former offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, who is entering his second season as Atlanta's head coach. Batson totaled 12 receptions for 100 yards and one touchdown over 12 games with Tennessee in 2020 and should provide additional veteran depth to the Falcons' receiving corps.

Batson (knee) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Batson suffered a torn ACL during Monday's win over the Bills, so it was only a matter of time before he moved to injured reserve. The 25-year-old finishes 2021 with two catches for 15 yards and one touchdown in four games.

Batson (knee) sustained a season-ending torn right ACL during Monday's win over the Bills, NFL writer Paul Kuharsky reports.

EDGE Analysis

Batson will doubtless undergo surgery and shift to IR in the near future, as will rookie first-round pick Caleb Farley, who also suffered an ACL tear Week 6. Through four appearances this season, Batson secured two of five targets for 15 yards and a score. He also logged two carries for 15 yards.

Batson has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game against the Bills due to a right knee injury, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Batson appeared to suffer a non-contact injury near the end of the first half, and he was unable to put any pressure on his right leg on his way off the field. Marcus Johnson appears to be the replacement as the team's kick returner, at least to start the second half.

Batson recorded one reception on four targets for two yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Batson was on the field for 25 percent of the team's offensive snaps due to the absence of both A.J. Brown (hamstring) and Julio Jones (hamstring). He still was limited to a peripheral role in the offense, finishing sixth on the team in targets. However, Batson did make his lone reception count by finding the end zone with 16 seconds left in the contest to tie the game at 24. Batson could continue to rotate into the game if both Brown and Jones remain sidelined, but he will struggle for any type of role if either return.

Batson caught his only target for 13 yards in Sunday's Week 3 win over the Colts.

EDGE Analysis

Batson had been inactive for each of the team's first two games, though he managed his season debut against the Colts. He was on the field for 40 percent of the team's offensive snaps, but he saw only target that came late in the third quarter. Batson could be active again for a Week 4 matchup against the Jets as the team will likely be without A.J. Brown (hamstring).
