The NFL has announced they are asking the Falcons a few injury report compliance questions of the Falcons after some concerns were raised about the usage of Bijan Robinson and if the Falcons had a duty to report his headache pregame.

"The fantasy community is mad, the NFL will pretend to look into it," says Andy Bunker when discussing the league's interest into the Falcons injury report compliance. Randy McMichael agreed that since Bijan did play, there's no real issue with how the Falcons handled things.


There is a precedent for the NFL firing both NFL franchises and individual head coaches. In 2019 the Steelers were fined $75,000 and Mike Tomlin was fined $25,000 in regards to how they reported the status of Ben Roethlisberger.
