Status of A.J. Terrell remains murky for Week 4

After missing last week’s 30-0 loss to the Panthers, A.J. Terrell’s status for Week 4 remains unchanged, with Raheem Morris continuing to list him as week-to-week.

A.J. Terrell is still "week-to-week" with his hamstring injury, but Raheem Morris is hopeful that at the latest he comes back after the Week 5 bye. At the earliest this weekend, but that is very up in the air as the Falcons haven't had a practice yet.

Given the nature of hamstring injuries and these most recent words from the Falcons head coach, it feels highly unlikely A.J. Terrell suits up against the Commanders. Returning against the Bills in Week 6 following the bye week is looking like the most plausible scenario.

The good news is Dee Alford has filled in very nicely in Terrell’s absence. He was outstanding against the Panthers and more than held his own in the second half against the Vikings. Additionally, the Commanders could be without starting quarterback Jayden Daniels, who is still nursing a sprained knee, and star wide receiver Terry McLaurin‘s status is also in question as he deals with a quad injury.
