The Atlanta Falcons (2-2) will look for their third consecutive win on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-2), but they’ll have to do so without two of their best offensive players.
Both running back Cordarrelle Patterson and tight end Kyle Pitts are out for today’s NFC South showdown, while Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady will be looking for his 11th career win against the Falcons.
Atlanta listed five players as inactive for Week 5, which you can see below.
