Falcons' Walker Out With Leg Injury | Atlanta Falcons News

Falcons’ promising second-year edge rusher Jalon Walker went down hard during practice with a suspected left leg injury, forcing the team to end training camp early. The 15th overall pick in the 2025 draft was expected to play a major role this season—both as a pass-rusher and potentially inside linebacker—and showed strong rookie potential with five-and-a-half sacks and elite run defense grades. His injury hits at a critical time, as the Falcons already face possible suspension for James Pearce Jr. and lack depth at the position. Fans and coaches alike are now holding their breath, hoping the severity isn’t as bad as it appeared. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
