Elijah Wilkinson heads to injured reserve

The news that Elijah Wilkinson was going to miss his second game of the 2022 season was unwelcome news indeed, given that he’s helped pave the way for a great ground game all year for our Falcons. The news is that he’s headed to injured reserve is even more unwelcome, and it may set Matt Hennessy up for an extended stint at left guard.

Per the team, Wilkinson will be out for at least four games with a knee injury, part of a veritable blizzard of Saturday afternoon moves for the Falcons.
