If there’s early reason to be concerned about the Falcons offensive line, it’s the “next man up” modus operandi that they’ve been forced into as a result of early injury. First-round draft pick Kaleb McGary is on the mend from a cardiac ablation procedure, one which he is beginning his return from but will still keep him out of the mix for multiple weeks. Newly re-signed tackle Ty Sambrailo was largely ineffective in Thursday’s preseason game against the Jets, and will now miss time due to a shoulder injury.
So who’s the next man up to protect Matt Ryan on the right?
