Falcons announce Week 17 practice squad elevation

The Atlanta Falcons (7-8) have elevated practice squad offensive lineman John Leglue for their Week 17 matchup against the Chicago Bears (6-9), the team announced on Saturday afternoon.

Leglue was elevated for last week’s win over the Indianapolis Colts. The 27-year-old can provide some depth up front if right tackle Kaleb McGary sits out again.

The Falcons are three-point underdogs going into Sunday’s game against the Bears, but they’re in considerably better shape injury-wise. Aside from McGary, who was listed as questionable, no other players were given injury designations on Friday’s injury report.

Check out the team’s updated 53-man roster, depth chart and our behind enemy lines interview with Bears Wire.
