Falcons RB Devonta Freeman has bone contusion in foot, status unclear

Falcons RB Devonta Freeman has had injury struggles since the end of the 2017 season, and sadly, the buck hasn’t stopped with his Pittsburgh return.

NFL insider Ian Rapoport dropped the unfortunate news that Freeman’s got a bone contusion in his foot.

#Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (foot) is battling a bone contusion, source said. He didn’t practice today due to the soreness and his status for Sunday is clearly in doubt. He did do work on the side, though.
