Grady Jarrett, the anchor to Atlanta's defense for many years, will miss the rest of the season after suffering a torn ACL in Sunday's game versus the Tennessee Titans. ESPN's Adam Schefter was among the first to report the news on the severity of the injury to the Falcons' defensive tackle.

"Falcons’ Pro-Bowl DT Grady Jarrett suffered a season-ending torn ACL during Sunday’s loss, per sources," Schefter said via the social platform X.

Jarrett, a fifth-round pick in the 2015 NFL Draft, hasn't missed a start since 2018 and has only missed three games in his eight and a half years with the Falcons.
