Falcons' Jeff Okudah: Goes backward
Okudah (ankle) did not practice Thursday, Amna Subhan of the Falcons' official site reports.
Okudah was limited during Wednesday's practice so this is a step in the wrong direction for the Ohio State product. With A.J. Terrell still in concussion protocols, the Falcons could potentially be missing both of their starting corners for Sunday's matchup with the Buccaneers. Okudah will work to get back on the field Friday to increase his chances of playing in the contest.

Falcons' Jeff Okudah: Logs season-high tackles
Okudah registered eight tackles (seven solo) in the Falcons' 24-15 win over the Saints on Sunday.
Okudah's eight tackles were good for the second most on the team and were also a new single-game season high for the 24-year-old. The 2020 first-round pick now has 36 tackles (26 solo) on the season and will look to add to that against the Jets in Week 13.

Falcons' Jeff Okudah: Season-high six tackles
Okudah recorded six tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 21-19 win over the Texans.
Okudah, who was traded to Atlanta by Detroit this offseason, missed the first two games of the season due to a foot injury. He was cleared to take the field in Week 3 versus his former team, but he played just 10 defensive snaps. Okudah's role has increased in each game since, and he played all 58 defensive snaps versus Houston on Sunday. Now that he's 100 percent, it's safe to assume Okudah will continue to operate as the starting cornerback opposite A.J. Terrell.

Falcons' Jeff Okudah: Will make season debut Sunday
Okudah (foot) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Lions, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Okudah missed the first two games of the campaign due to a foot injury that popped up during training camp. He was a full participant at each practice of Week 3 prep, so it's not surprising to see him cleared, even though he was listed as questionable. Okudah will make his season debut against his former team, but his role may be limited as he works his way back to game speed.

Falcons' Jeff Okudah: Good chance to debut Sunday
Okudah (foot) is expected to play Sunday in Detroit as long as he doesn't experience any issues during pregame warmups, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Okudah injured his foot during practice in early August and missed the Falcons' first two games of the regular season. However, he was a full participant in practice this week and appears set to make his team debut despite carrying a questionable tag into Sunday. With Okudah's return, Tre Flowers will likely return to a reserve role.

Falcons' Jeff Okudah: Officially questionable for Sunday
Okudah (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 3 game against the Lions.
Okudah is still looking to make his Falcons debut after initially getting injured last month. He got in a round of full practices this week and should be on the probable side of questionable. Okudah has extra motivation for this game after the Lions traded him to Atlanta this past offseason.

Falcons' Jeff Okudah: Remains out
Okudah (foot) is inactive for Sunday's Week 2 matchup versus Green Bay, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Okudah will miss a second straight game due to a foot injury he suffered during training camp. The cornerback was able to practice in a limited fashion Wednesday through Friday after not practicing at all ahead of Week 1, so it appears he's making progress and may be able to make his Falcons debut in Week 3. However, Okudah will presumably have to log at least one full session before he gets the green light.

Falcons' Jeff Okudah: Listed as questionable for Week 2
Okudah (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 2 game against the Packers, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports.
Okudah was injured in practice during training camp and missed the Week 1 opener. Coach Arthur Smith said there's a scenario in which Okudah is active against Green Bay but doesn't start, according to Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com. Acquired in a trade from the Lions during the offseason, Okudah is expected to eventually be a starting corner this season for Atlanta.

Falcons' Jeff Okudah: Back at practice
Okudah (foot) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday ahead of Sunday's game versus Green Bay, Scott Blair of the Falcons' official site reports.
After missing practice all of last week and sitting out Atlanta's regular-season opener, Okudah took a step toward returning to action Wednesday. He'll probably need to log a full practice either Thursday or Friday in order to suit up for Week 2.

Falcons' Jeff Okudah: Out for Week 1
Okudah (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
Okudah didn't practice all week and won't play in Week 1 after being injured back on Aug. 4 at practice. With Okudah out, A.J. Terrell, Mike Hughes and Dee Alford should soak up most of the cornerback snaps against a banged-up Panthers wideout corps.

Falcons' Jeff Okudah: Misses practice Wednesday
Okudah (ankle) did not participate at the Falcons' practice Wednesday, Scott Bair of the team's official website reports.
Okudah has been showing improvement ahead of Week 1, but it appears as if his ankle injury could force him to miss Sunday's contest with the Panthers. The cornerback still has two more days to practice before this weekend and more information on his status will likely be provided Thursday.

Falcons' Jeff Okudah: Showing improvement
Head coach Arthur Smith said Wednesday that Okudah (ankle) is "making a lot of progress," Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Okudah's status for Sunday's season opener versus the Panthers is still in question, but the Ohio State product may be further along in his recovery from an ankle injury than expected. The 24-year-old cornerback suffered the injury during practice in early August and was expected to miss the first few weeks of the season. If Okudah ultimately isn't cleared to play Week 1, Tre Flowers and Dee Alford could be called upon to step into bigger workloads in the secondary.
