Bryant (back) was limited at practice Thursday, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bryant didn't make his first appearance at practice until Friday last week, so his back is seemingly in better shape this time around. If he enters the weekend with a questionable designation, it would seem to indicate the Falcons are worried about his back stiffening up. Friday's injury report will relay whether this sentiment is in play for the second week in a row.

Bryant (back) didn't practice Wednesday, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bryant was held out with the same injury last Wednesday and Thursday, but he returned to practice Friday and played in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Dolphins. He made both of his extra points and one of two field-goal attempts, connecting from 50 yards out but missing from 59. Bryant should be available for Sunday's game in New England.

Bryant connected on a 50-yard field goal and two extra points in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

Bryant also attempted a 59-yard field goal at the end of the first half, and although it had the accuracy, the kick fell just short. He won't be kicking in a dome in Week 7, but Bryant should have plenty of scoring opportunities against the Patriots in his next game.

Bryant (back) is active for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

Bryant logged just one limited practice this week while tending to the back injury, but the Falcons never expressed much concern for the 42-year-old's availability for Week 6. Despite his advanced age, Bryant has proved his worth as a upper-tier fantasy kicker this season, converting all nine of his field-goal attempts and all 11 of his extra-point tries in four games. With all sound on the health front, Bryant's owners should have no qualms about keeping him active this week.

Bryant (back) is expected to play Sunday against the Dolphins, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Owners will want to check back in to make sure he's active prior to Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. The Falcons added kicker Mike Meyer to their practice squad Wednesday to provide insurance while Bryant deals with this injury.

EDGE Analysis

The Falcons added kicker Mike Meyer to their practice squad Wednesday to provide insurance while Bryant deals with this injury. With the Falcons heavily favored to win Sunday's game, Bryant will be one of the top options at his position if he's able to play. Owners will want to check back in to make sure he's active prior to Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. It will be a good sign if Meyer isn't activated to the 53-man roster Saturday.

Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said Bryant (back) will be held out of practice Thursday, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bryant was also sidelined at Wednesday's practice with the injury, so it appears the back injury could be significant enough to force him out of Sunday's tilt with the Dolphins. The Falcons will wait and see if Bryant can get on the practice field Friday in some capacity, but if the veteran is forced to miss his first game of the season, Mike Meyer, who was signed to the practice squad Wednesday, would likely be promoted to the active roster to handle kicking duties.

The Falcons expect Bryant (back) to be ready for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Coming out of a bye week, Bryant was held out of Wednesday's practice and is set to appear on the injury report for the first time this season. The Falcons signed Mike Meyer to the practice squad Wednesday, hinting at some level of uncertainty regarding Bryant's status for Sunday against Miami. With the Falcons playing at home and heavily favored, Bryant will be one of the top options at his position if he's able to play.

For the second week in a row, Bryant connected with all six of his kicks in a 30-26 win over the Lions.

EDGE Analysis

Bryant connected on three field goal attempts and all three extra points on Sunday, keeping him perfect on the season. He has made all eight of his field goal attempts and all nine of his extra point attempts so far, and he's tallied double digit points in every game this season. He'll kick in a dome the next two weeks against the Bills and the Dolphins.

Bryant connected on two field goals and four extra points in Sunday's win over the Packers.

EDGE Analysis

Both of Bryant's field goals were over 50 yards, so the ageless wonder proved that he's still got plenty of accuracy. Playing in a high scoring offense and kicking off turf bodes well for his chances of being one of the highest scoring kickers this season.
