The Falcons will have to do without their Swiss army knife for 4 games.
The Atlanta Falcons have decided to place Cordarelle Patterson on the injured list following a knee injury suffered in the last game against the Cleveland Browns.
He will be absent at least 4 games.
The running back had started the season well with 3 touchdowns in 4 games and 58 carries for 340 yards, or nearly 6 yards per game.
The team has promoted Caleb Huntley to the active roster. He will therefore support Tyler Allegier, drafted this year by the Falcons in the 5th round.
