The Atlanta Falcons are set to face off against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 16. Despite being eliminated from playoff contention, both teams are hoping to finish strong over the final three weeks of the 2025 NFL season.
Head coaches Raheem Morris and Jonathan Gannon are on thin ice after falling short of expectations yet again in 2025. Morris and the Falcons still have a chance to match last year’s 8-9 record. Meanwhile, the Cardinals have lost six games in a row to fall to 3-11 overall.
Drake London was listed as questionable on the team’s final injury report, but Morris said he expects the star wide receiver to play in Week 16. Tight end Kyle Pitts is also good to go for Sunday’s game in Arizona.
On defense, cornerback Mike Hughes has been ruled out. That leaves undrafted free agent Cobee Bryant to start opposite A.J. Terrell. Defensive lineman Brandon Dorlus and edge James Pearce Jr. are both questionable.
