Falcons vs. Ravens: How to watch Bijan Robinson vs. Derrick Henry on 'SNF'
Tyler Huntley steps in for an injured Lamar Jackson as Baltimore faces a surging Atlanta offense led by Bijan Robinson Two teams, both on two-game winning streaks, meet in prime time this Sunday night, as theAtlanta Falconshost theBaltimore Ravens. The Falcons went from laughing stock to potential NFC South favorite over two weeks, as Michael Penix Jr. has brought some stability to Kevin Stefanski's offense. As for the Ravens, they are tied with the Cleveland Browns for the AFC North lead at 3-1, but won't have their two-time NFL MVP under center this week. Baltimore ruled star quarterback Lamar Jackson out for this matchup due to the ankle injury suffered during last Sunday's win over the Tennessee Titans. He's not the only notable Raven ruled out, as Baltimore also announced pass rusher Trey Hendrickson and new center Cam Jurgens would not be suiting up as well. It will be Tyler Huntley at quarterback for the Ravens, who won both of his starts for Baltimore last year. As for the Falcons, this is a fun homecoming of sorts. They left Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Sept. 20 as a team with little hope, having just lost by 31 points to the Carolina Panthers. Now, they return as arguably the hottest team in the NFL with a new quarterback and an Offensive Player of the Year favorite at running back. Let's break down this exciting, primetime interconference matchup, but first, here's how you can watch:

3 Blazers Takeaways from Ja Morant Injury
Portland Trail Blazers won't have Ja Morant in the lineup for a few weeks after injuring his hamstring. Portland Trail Blazers guard Ja Morant reacts after the game against the Los Angeles Lakers. | IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters Connect The Portland Trail Blazers are shaking their heads after losing starting point guard Ja Morant to a hamstring injury that will sideline him for at least a month. Morant showed signs of strength during the first four games of the season, but left the team's most recent contest against his former Memphis Grizzlies team and did not return. Some members of the Portland Trail Blazers On SI staff explained how Morant's injury and absence will affect the team. Portland Trail Blazers guard Scoot Henderson drives to the basket against Memphis Grizzlies forward Jerami Grant. | IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters Connect "The Blazers will need to rely on the backcourt depth they have at their disposal. Though the number of guards on the roster was seen as a negative heading into the season, that abundance can now prove itself as a calculated advantage by the front office. "Scoot Henderson will need to improve on what has been an underwhelming start to his campaign after looking like a potential breakout candidate in the preseason. Hopefully, with extended minutes and an expanded role, Henderson can develop a rhythm similar to what we saw at the tail end of last season." — Sahal Arwo

Falcons vs. Bucs injury report: Brian Robinson ruled out for Sunday
Greetings, Falcoholics! Friday's practices have come and gone, and we now have an update on the health of both the Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Falcons have had a lengthly injury report all week, and there's some notable names to keep an eye on prior to Sunday's game. As mentioned, and as you can see, the Falcons have a pretty long injury report on Friday. Several players have been designated as questionable to play, but only one has been officially ruled out: running back Brian Robinson. With Robinson being held out due to his ongoing hamstring injury, expect a heavy dose of Bijan Robinson and some reps for Khalil Herbert. A key name that popped up on Friday's report was right guard Chris Lindstrom, who is dealing with a personal matter that kept him off the practice field. He has no game designation, so it's expected that he will be out there on Sunday. The big news for the Buccaneers on Friday was that wide receiver Emeka Egbuka has been ruled out with a concussion and foot injury.
