Falcons RB Caleb Huntley ruled out for game due to ankle injury

The Atlanta Falcons have ruled out Caleb Huntley for the remainder of Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints after the running back suffered an ankle injury in the first quarter.

Huntley has been a key part of Atlanta’s ground attack this season, racking up 364 rushing yards while averaging nearly five yards per carry. Look for Cordarrelle Patterson and rookie Tyler Allgeier to get additional touches with Huntley sidelined.

The Falcons currently trail by 14 to the Saints in the second quarter.
