Falcons activate veteran CB Darqueze Dennard from IR

The Atlanta Falcons announced a few roster moves on Saturday afternoon, but the most notable is the return of veteran cornerback Darqueze Dennard from the injured reserve list.

Dennard went down with a hamstring injury during the second half of the team’s Week 3 loss to the Chicago Bears. After designating him to return last week, the Falcons are finally getting their most experienced cornerback back.

Atlanta also placed CB Jordan Miller on injured reserve, while flexing LB Edmond Robinson and DE Pita Taumoepenu to the active roster for Sunday’s game against the Denver Broncos.

In the three games Dennard was active this season, he recorded 16 tackles (10 solo), three passes defended and one interception.
