Bertrand (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Colts.

EDGE Analysis

Bertrand logged a full practice Friday and appears good to go for Sunday's contest. During last Sunday's 24-23 loss to the Patriots, Bertrand played 30 defensive snaps and logged five total tackles (four solo).

Bertrand (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bertrand likely injured his knee during the Falcons' Week 9 loss to the Patriots, when he played 46 snaps (30 on defense, 16 on special teams) and finished with five tackles (four solo). He had has practice reps limited Wednesday, and he'll have two more opportunities to practice fully and avoid an injury tag ahead of Sunday's game against the Colts.

Bertrand logged nine tackles (three solo) in Atlanta's loss versus the Dolphins on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Bertrand finished second on the team in tackles behind Kaden Elliss' 12. The 25-year-old has taken advantage of increased playing time over the past two weeks with Divine Deablo sidelined by a forearm injury, racking up 19 tackles (seven solo) over that span. Bertrand will look to keep producing in the Week 9 matchup against the Patriots.

Bertrand (eye) is participating in OTAs, Daniel Flick of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bertrand closed his rookie season on the sidelines with an eye injury, though the issue is now behind him. He could be in line for a key reserve role in the middle of Atlanta's defense while also serving on special teams in 2025.

Bertrand (eye) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

An eye injury limited Bertrand in practice all week, and the issue is severe enough for the rookie fifth-rounder to miss the final game of the regular season. He'll end his first NFL regular season with 23 tackles (16 solo), including 1.0 sacks, over 12 games. Josh Woods will be the primary backup at inside linebacker behind starters Kaden Elliss and Nate Landman due to Bertrand's injury.

Bertrand (eye) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Panthers, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie linebacker from Notre Dame was limited in practice throughout the week due to an eye issue, but it appears he still has a chance to suit up for the Week 18 divisional matchup. If Bertrand is unable to play Sunday, Josh Woods will likely serve as the Falcons' top reserve inside linebacker.

Bertrand (concussion) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Chargers.

EDGE Analysis

Bertrand missed the Falcons' last three regular-season games due to a concussion. He was able to log consecutive full practices to end the week, and he has cleared the league's five-step concussion protocols ahead of Sunday's game. The rookie fifth-round pick has logged 10 tackles (seven solo) across eight regular-season games.

Bertrand (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Broncos, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bertrand downgraded to a DNP on Friday after opening the Falcons' week of practice with consecutive limited sessions. The rookie from Notre Dame must still pass through the NFL's five-step concussion protocol before taking the field again. Expect Rashaan Evans to serve as one of the Falcons' top rotational inside linebackers until Bertrand returns.

Bertrand (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Saints.

EDGE Analysis

Bertrand has yet to pass through the NFL's five-step concussion protocol and is now in line to miss his second consecutive game Sunday. Rashaan Evans is expected to see increased work on the Falcons' special-teams unit with Bertrand sidelined in Week 10.

Bertrand (concussion) won't play against the Cowboys on Sunday, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bertrand was concussed in Sunday's win over Tampa Bay and hasn't cleared the NFL's five-step protocol. The linebacker logged 73 percent of the team's defensive snaps in Week 5 but has otherwise played primarily on special teams. Bertrand's absence Sunday could pave the way for Rashaan Evans, who was signed to the 53-player roster Friday, to see some work on defense immediately.
