Falcons' Michael Bennett: Placed on IR

The Falcons placed Bennett (ankle) on injured reserve Friday.

No surprise here, as Bennett suffered a broken ankle at practice earlier in the week. Injuries have been an issue for Bennett, as he also missed most of the 2017 season due to a torn pectoral and was sidelined during this spring's OTAs with a hand injury. The 26-year-old will now look forward to at working through another recovery process.
