Lindstrom Out, Falcons’ Offense in Crisis | Charlotte News

Falcons’ offensive linemen are in crisis as Pro Bowl guard Chris Lindstrom enters concussion protocol, jeopardizing his availability for Sunday’s showdown with the Panthers. Already reeling from defensive tackle DaShawn Hand’s season-ending injury, Atlanta’s struggling offense now faces even greater pressure without Lindstrom — a cornerstone player whose leadership and talent are vital to protecting the QB and establishing rhythm. With Bijan Robinson carrying the load last week, the team needs more balance, and Kyle Hinton may be thrust into a starting role. Compounding the issue: the quarterback spot remains unclaimed, making Lindstrom’s absence a major blow as the Falcons seek redemption after their Week One loss.
