Falcons lose starting right tackle Ryan Schraeder to concussion

ATLANTA -- The Atlanta Falcons lost right tackle Ryan Schraeder and linebacker Vic Beasley to injury in Sunday night's 34-23 win over the Green Bay Packers.

Schraeder sustained a concussion while delivering a key block on Devonta Freeman's 1-yard touchdown run in the first quarter, while Beasley exited with a hamstring injury.

Schraeder, the Falcons' top tackle, plays a key part in keeping quarterback Matt Ryan upright and brings stability as a run-blocker.

With Schraeder out, the Falcons have Ty Sambrailo in at right tackle. He was acquired from the Denver Broncos a few weeks ago in exchange for a fifth-round draft pick.

The Falcons also ruled out defensive lineman Courtney Upshaw for the rest of the game with an ankle injury.

Atlanta coach Dan Quinn said he would have more info on the team's injuries Monday.
