Darrisaw was downgraded to questionable on Saturday afternoon due to a groin injury the team reported Friday. Darrisaw was listed as a full participant and didn't carry an injury designation into the weekend, meaning he was expected to play until Saturday's update.
Darrisaw has been one of the NFL's best blockers during his third season, although this could be his second absence due to injury. He missed the Week 2 loss in Philadelphia due to a sprained ankle suffered just four days earlier.
Journeyman David Quessenberry, who played in that Eagles loss when Oli Udoh suffered a season-ending torn quad tendon, would likely replace Darrisaw against the Falcons if necessary. One of them will block for rookie quarterback Jaren Hall, who is making his first NFL start after Kirk Cousins' season-ending Achilles injury last week in Green Bay.
