Kendal Daniels of the Falcons Suffers Serious Injury During Game

Kendal Daniels, a linebacker for the Falcons, was carted off the field during a game against the Bears after attempting to tackle tight end Colston Loveland.

Speculation arose that Daniels would go directly to the hospital for evaluation instead of the locker room, as he was seen leaving on a stretcher with his jersey and pads removed.

The 23-year-old player, who previously attended Oklahoma State before transferring to Oklahoma, was selected by Atlanta in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. In his first year of a four-year rookie contract, he has played in six games, recording 22 tackles and one sack. Further updates on his condition are expected.
