The Atlanta Falcons will miss one of its most important members of its defense team for the rest of the season.
NFL insider Adam Schefter reported Monday morning that Falcons defensive tackle Grady Jarrett will miss the rest of the Falcons season due to a torn ACL as a result of an injury suffered at the Titans game last Sunday.

This is Jarrett’s only injury in his career, and he’s only missed three games in that career.
WSB TV’s Zach Klein reported that the Falcons are now in the process of finding a replacement for Jarrett before the league’s trading deadline.
