Falcons' McGary undergoing MRI on leg injury
Briefly

Kaleb McGary was carted off the Falcons' practice field in Flowery Branch, Ga., with an apparent leg injury and is undergoing an MRI. The Falcons will provide an update on his status "at an appropriate time." The injury occurred before 11-on-11 work, and the team huddled while McGary was tended to. He was taken to the building entrance and appeared to favor his left leg when leaving the cart with a trainer's help. McGary, 30, is entering his seventh season as a starter and recently signed a two-year, $30 million extension. Backup Storm Norton remains out; Elijah Wilkinson filled in.
McGary is receiving an MRI and the Falcons will give an update on his status "at an appropriate time," per a team spokesperson. It's unclear how McGary got injured. The situation happened before 11-on-11 work started. The team huddled up before that portion of practice as McGary was being tended to. McGary was carted to the entrance of the building and then seemed to favor his left leg as he got off the cart with a trainer's help.
McGary, 30, is going into his seventh season as the Falcons' starting right tackle. The former first-round pick has an increased role in 2025 as the blindside protector of left-handed quarterback Michael Penix Jr. Earlier this month, McGary signed a two-year, $30 million contract extension with Atlanta. Falcons backup swing tackle Storm Norton has been out the last few weeks with a lower body injury. Elijah Wilkinson replaced McGary at practice.
