Falcons' Sam Roberts: Won't play Monday
Roberts (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Rams, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports.
Roberts had his 21-day practice window opened Friday, but he's not yet ready to get back on the field for game action. His final chance to retake the field during the 2025 campaign will come during Atlanta's regular-season finale against the Saints in Week 18.

Falcons' Sam Roberts: Gets go-ahead to practice
Roberts (knee) was officially designated for return to practice from Atlanta's injured reserve list Friday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Roberts had been unable to take the field at all since suffering an injury to his leg in Week 10 at Indianapolis, but he was able to participate at practice in a limited capacity Friday. The transaction means Atlanta could activate him to play as soon as Monday versus the Rams, but the team will likely wait to evaluate his activity at practice Saturday before making that call.

Falcons' Sam Roberts: Moved to IR
The Falcons placed Roberts (knee) on injured reserve Friday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.
Roberts suffered an ankle injury in this past Sunday's loss to Indianapolis, and the issue is serious enough to cause him to sit out at least the next four games. Roberts had been working in a rotational role prior to getting hurt, notching between a 30 percent and 43 percent defensive snap share each of the previous four weeks. Atlanta signed defensive lineman Kentavius Street to the active roster to take Roberts' place in a corresponding move.

Falcons' Sam Roberts: Won't play vs. Panthers
Roberts (knee) is officially listed as out for Sunday's game versus Carolina, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
Roberts left the game early in Week 10 at Indianapolis with a leg injury, and now he'll have to sit out at least one week as he recovers. If 2024 fourth-rounder Brandon Dorlus (oblique) can go Sunday, he might be in line for an expanded role on the defensive line with Roberts out.

Falcons' Sam Roberts: Sidelined by multiple injuries
Roberts (knee/ankle) did not practice Wednesday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Roberts left Sunday's game against the Colts with an ankle injury. It's unclear when the knee injury occurred, though he'll have to overcome both issues to suit up for Sunday's matchup against the Panthers.

Falcons' Sam Roberts: Departs with ankle injury
Roberts was forced out of Sunday's game against the Colts in Berlin in the first quarter due to an ankle injury and is considered questionable to return, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.
Roberts registered one tackle before checking out of the game due to the injury. The fourth-year nose tackle typically handles a rotational role along the Atlanta defensive line, as he's played less than 50 percent of the snaps in each of his prior four appearances on the season.

Falcons' Sam Roberts: Sacks Allen in 2025 debut
Roberts registered four tackles (one solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Atlanta's 24-14 win over Buffalo on Monday.
The 2022 sixth-rounder registered the first sack of his four-year NFL career early in the fourth quarter. Roberts was a healthy scratch for the Falcons' first four games of the regular season but was active for Monday's contest due to LaCale London being sidelined with a triceps injury. Roberts ended up playing 23 snaps on defense and could serve in a rotational role for the Falcons' Week 7 road tilt against the 49ers if London is not cleared to play.

Sam Roberts: Gets tryout with Panthers
Carolina hosted Roberts (undisclosed) for a tryout Friday, Howard Balzer of USA Today reports.
Roberts was waived from the Bears' practice squad injured list Oct. 2 due to an unspecified issue. He appears to be over the injury, and he's looking to catch on with a team in need of interior line depth. Roberts played in seven regular-season games for the Patriots in 2023 and finished with five tackles (two solo).

Roberts (undisclosed) was cut from the Bears practice-squad injury list with an injury settlement Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Roberts was placed on Chicago's practice-squad injured list late last week with an undisclosed injury, but he will now be free to sign elsewhere if he passes a physical. The defensive tackle appeared in seven games with the Patriots in 2023, recording five total tackles (two solo).

Roberts (undisclosed) was placed on the Bears' practice-squad injured list Thursday, Scott Bair of Marquee Sports Network reports.
Roberts' move to the injured list will keep him out of action for at least the next four weeks, making him ineligible to be elevated to the active roster during that span.
