Taylor Heinicke News
Atlanta Falcons quarterback Taylor Heinicke (hamstring) is officially active for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. He was listed as questionable after logging three limited practices this past week. Despite suiting up, the 30-year-old was benched during the bye week and will return to the No. 2 quarterback role behind Desmond Ridder. He looked solid during his two starts, completing 54.7 percent of his passes for 323 passing yards, 54 rushing yards, two touchdowns, and an interception.
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mack Hollins (ankle) has been ruled out for the Week 12 game against the New Orleans Saints, while quarterback Taylor Heinicke (hamstring) is listed as questionable. This will be the second straight missed game for Hollins despite having the bye to rest up in Week 11. In the 30-year-old's absence, Van Jefferson and KhaDarel Hodge are expected to serve as the No. 2 and 3 receivers behind Drake London yet again, but neither pass-catcher is a realistic starting option in fantasy lineups, even in deeper leagues. The Falcons are likely to utilize tight ends Kyle Pitts and Jonnu Smith more in the passing game. Heinicke started the previous two games for the Falcons but has been benched in favor of Desmond Ridder the rest of the year. If he cannot suit up on Sunday, Logan Woodside would be the backup to Ridder.
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Mack Hollins (ankle) and backup quarterback Taylor Heinicke (hamstring) will be limited in practice on Wednesday coming off their bye week. Hollins was unable to practice at all or play in Week 10, but he's trending in the right direction to suit up in Week 12 against the New Orleans Saints after having extra time to rest during last week's bye. Heinicke is also trending in the right direction, but he is back in a backup role behind Desmond Ridder. The 30-year-old Hollins isn't much of an option in fantasy leagues, even in the deepest formats, as he has just 17 catches for 247 yards and no touchdowns on 29 targets in nine games in 2023.
