The Atlanta Falcons will be without starting right tackle Kaleb McGary for a "significant" amount of time, head coach Raheem Morris told reporters following Friday's 31-13 preseason loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Morris said the injured reserve list was likely for McGary, who suffered a leg injury during practice last week.

Atlanta Falcons coach Raheem Morris says right tackle Kaleb McGary will miss significant time and is headed to injured reserve after getting carted off at practice this week with a lower left leg injury.

McGary, who just signed a two-year, $30 million extension with the team a few weeks ago, has been a mainstay along the Falcons’ offensive line since being drafted in the first round in 2019. He has appeared in 93 games (92 starts) at right tackle in that time, developing a reputation as a nasty run blocker.
