Wheatley (undisclosed) reverted to Atlanta's injured reserve list Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Wheatley was waived by the Falcons with an injury designation Thursday, and because he wasn't subsequently claimed by another team, he'll now go to their injured reserve list. He'll be required to stay there for the entire 2025 campaign unless he can negotiate an injury settlement with Atlanta.

Wheatley (undisclosed) was waived by Atlanta on Thursday with an injury designation, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wheatley signed with Atlanta in January to add depth at the tackle position. However, he unexpectedly missed practice Wednesday, according to Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site. The 28-year-old has played in just two NFL regular-season games and was waived off injured reserve by New England last September. It's unclear whether his current injury is related to his past history. Should the third-year pro clear waivers, he will revert to the team's injured reserve.
