Falcons place Keith Smith on IR, sign Tucker Fisk to roster

The Atlanta Falcons (6-8) have placed fullback Keith Smith on the injured reserve list and signed tight end Tucker Fisk to the 53-man roster, the team announced on Saturday afternoon.

Smith practiced this week, but he was listed as doubtful on Friday’s injury report due to an ankle injury. Fisk was signed off of the team’s practice squad to replace Smith. The young tight end was elevated for last week’s loss to the Carolina Panthers.

The Falcons also elevated offensive lineman John Leglue and punter Pat O’Donnell from the practice squad for Sunday’s game against the Indianapolis Colts (8-6).
