DeMarcco Hellams Joins Darnell Mooney on Falcons Injury Report

Falcons and Buccaneers clash week one with injury misfortune looming. DeMarcco Hellams and Jack Nelson didn’t practice for Atlanta, while Darnell Mooney is a game-time decision after a shoulder issue. Tampa Bay’s report is longer, featuring Vita Vea, Haason Reddick, Tristan Wirfs, Cade Otton and more, with Otton projected to be ready. These health updates shape early-season fantasy values, highlighting depth players and late status changes for Friday decisions.

Expect late-week shifts to influence DFS and streamer picks, especially in shallow leagues where every snap counts. The mix of rotational defenders and in-game risk around TB’s star protection could tilt targets and rushing lanes, making Friday’s injury report drop crucial for lineup optimization.

Which Falcon player should fantasy managers target for Week 1 given injury uncertainty at safety depth?How does Otton’s full participation change TB’s tight end outlook for Week 1?If Vea is limited, which TB interior defender gains the most fantasy upside Week 1?What game script changes when Wirfs plays versus when he’s limited or out?
