The Falcons signed Wetzel on Monday, D. Orlando Ledbetter, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wetzel failed to make the team out of camp this offseason, but with the placement of Chris Lindstrom (foot) on IR, returned to the team. He'll likely be a depth lineman going forward, but could have a shot to suit up for games should the opportunity present itself.

Wetzel (neck) signed a one-year contract with the Falcons on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Wetzel finished his 2018 campaign with the Cardinals on injured reserve due to a neck injury. He's a utility lineman, as he played both left and right guard along with right tackle before suffering this injury. The 27-year-old should have a shot at a starting gig in training camp.

Wetzel was placed on injured reserve with a neck injury Saturday, Scott Bordow of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wetzel's absence is a significant blow to the Cardinals' offensive line depth, as they already rank worst in the NFL with 3.4 yards per rush. Andre Smith should start at right tackle for the Arizona.

Wetzel is active for Sunday's game against the 49ers.
EDGE Analysis
Wetzel will suit up Sunday, and rookie quarterback Josh Rosen will benefit from the protection of his starting right tackle against San Francisco's defensive front.

Wetzel (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the 49ers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Cardinals' brutal offensive line can ill afford to lose Wetzel, the starting right tackle. If he can't play, expect Andre Smith to enter the fold.

Wetzel is battling a back injury and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wetzel was limited in practice this week and there is no clear indication on his availability for Sunday at this point. Vinston Painter would likely step in at right tackle if Wetzel cannot play.

Wetzel (pectoral) logged a full practice Friday and is without an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Niners, Darren Urban of the Cardinals official website reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Cardinals are dealing with a variety of issues on their offensive line, so Wetzel's presence will be essential Sunday. Look for him to take the field barring any setbacks.
