News

  • Full go Thursday

    Barner (knee) was a full participant at Thursday's practice, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Barner has been dealing with a concussion and a knee injury, but looks as though he will suit up Sunday, barring a setback. His main impact will come on special teams, where he should fill in as the Falcons' primary return man.

  • Upgraded for Wednesday's practice

    Barner (knee) was listed as a limited participant for Wednesday's practice, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Barner has been unable to practice the past two weeks while dealing with a concussion and the knee injury, but, as evidenced by this news, he is progressing from the latter. It will be important to track his practice status as the week goes on, but if he can't go for Week 6, expect Kendall Sheffield to continue to be the team's top kick returner with Mohamed Sanu filling in on punt returns.

  • Remains out Week 5

    Barner (knee) was ruled out for Sunday's game at Houston, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Barner missed last week's game due to a concussion and the knee injury, and though he's now clear of the former, the latter issue will keep him sidelined for at least one more game. Kendall Sheffield is expected to work as Atlanta's top kick returner while Mohamed Sanu fills in on punt returns.

  • Still not practicing

    Barner (knee) is not practicing Thursday, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Barner has fully cleared the league's concussion protocol, but it appears as though his knee injury could still sideline him during Sunday's tilt against the Texans. He'll have one more chance to resume practicing. If Barner is forced to miss any more time, Kendall Sheffield will step up as Atlanta's top kicker returner while Mohamed Sanu will serve as the team's No. 1 punt returner.

  • Clear of concussion, not practicing

    Barner (knee) did not practice Wednesday, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: While Barner's knee injury kept him from practicing Wednesday, it's nonetheless a step in the right direction that he appears to have cleared the concussion protocol. If he's able to get healthy in time for Sunday's game against Texans, Barner will retake his usual role as Atlanta's top kick and punt returner.

  • Won't play Sunday

    Barner (concussion/knee) was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Titans, Kelsey Conway of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Barner was a non-participant at practice Wednesday and Thursday, so it's not a major surprise to see him ruled out after suffering the concussion Sunday versus the Colts. Fellow RB Ito Smith (concussion) has been cleared to play and should take up his usual role in the backfield working behind Devonta Freeman.

  • No practice Thursday

    Barner (concussion/knee) was held out of practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Unlike fellow running back Ito Smith, who also is in the concussion protocol, Barner didn't work with the special teams group during the portion of practice open to the media, according to Jason Butt of The Athletic. With no apparent progress made through his head injury to date, Barner is trending in the wrong direction for an appearance Sunday versus the Titans. Friday's injury report could provide a glimpse into that eventuality.

  • Upgrades to limited practice

    Barner (concussion) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Barner appears to be progressing well in his recovery from a head injury sustained Week 3. He'll need to fully clear the league's concussion protocol before retaking the field, including being medically cleared by an independent neurologist, so it remains to be seen whether Barner will manage to get healthy in time for Sunday's tilt against the Titans.

  • Not practicing Wednesday

    Barner (concussion/knee) did not practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Barner exited Sunday's loss to the Colts due to a head injury and isn't yet healthy enough to practice. With Ito Smith (concussion) also sidelined Wednesday, the Falcons could be forced to rely on Qadree Ollison and Brian Hill in Week 4 as reserve running back options behind Devonta Freeman. Additionally, if Barner misses any time, Atlanta will roll with Justin Hardy and Kendall Sheffield as starting kick and punt returners, respectively.

  • Managing concussion

    Barner is in the concussion protocol Monday, Jason Butt of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Barner exited Sunday's loss to the Colts due to a concussion. He'll need to fully clear the league's protocol for head injuries before retaking the field. If Barner were to miss any time, Justin Hardy and Kendall Sheffield would serve as the Falcons' top kick and punt returners, respectively.

  • Evaluated for head injury

    Barner left Sunday's game against Indianapolis, and is being evaluated for a possible concussion, Kelsey Conway of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Barner is the second Atlanta running back to suffer a head injury Sunday, with Ito Smith diagnosed with a concussion already. Expect the team to comment on Barner's status following the game or in the coming days, but Devonta Freeman is the only healthy running back left on the roster for the remainder of the game.

  • Ready to rock

    Barner (ankle) was a full participant in Friday's practice, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Barner appears to have fully recovered from his ankle injury. He'll work to make an impact in the return game Sunday versus Indianapolis.

  • Limited Thursday

    Barner (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Barner played through his ankle injury Week 2 versus Philadelphia, and he could do the same Week 3 if he's limited again Friday. If Barner is able to go, he'll slide into his usual role as Atlanta's top return man versus the Colts on Sunday.

  • Held out of Wednesday's practice

    Barner (ankle) did not practice Wednesday, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Barner was a late addition to last week's injury report with an ankle injury, but he still ended up being active for Sunday night's contest against the Eagles. It's unclear at this time if Barner suffered a setback or if the Falcons are just being cautious with the running back.

    Published: Wed, Sep 18 at 3:07pm by Rotowire.com

  • Good to go against Eagles

    Barner (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation heading into Sunday's prime-time matchup with Philadelphia.

    Analysis: Barner popped up on the injury report Thursday after being limited by an ankle injury. The 30-year-old was then listed as a full participant in Friday's practice. Barner seems poised to continue his role as the team's top kick/punt returner.

  • Added to injury report

    Barner was limited in practice Thursday due to an ankle injury, William McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Barner's surprise appearance on the injury report makes his chances of suiting up Week 2 somewhat cloudy. He'll have one more opportunity to practice in full before Sunday's tilt against the Eagles. If Barner is forced to miss any time, expect Calvin Ridley to receive work returning kicks and Justin Hardy to return punts.

  • Electrifying day on punt returns

    Barner collected 46 yards on four punt return attempts and 44 yards on two kick returns during Sunday's 28-12 loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: Barner made a dent nearly every time he touched the ball on punt returns Sunday, picking up gains of 11, 12, five and 18 yards in his regular-season debut for the Falcons. He'll face a challenging special teams matchup in Week 2 going up against his former team on Sunday Night Football, with the Eagles allowing the sixth-fewest yards per punt return (6.3) last year.

  • Locks up return gig

    Barner was named the Falcons' top kickoff and punt returner Thursday, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: Barner will begin the season as Atlanta's primary return man while also providing depth at the running back position. The veteran projects to play a key role on special teams for the Falcons, but it's hard to get excited about his fantasy prospects since he won't be in store for regular offensive snaps.

  • Primed for special teams role

    Barner was one of three players fielding punts for the Falcons during Monday's practice session, Jason Butt of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Barner was banged up for a stretch of preseason play with an undisclosed injury and had to sit out two of Atlanta's five exhibition games as a result. He had three return opportunities in total, putting up 38 yards on two kickoff returns and nine yards on his lone punt return chance during the exhibition slate. Justin Hardy had a solid 2018 for the Falcons with 7.7 yards per punt return (17th in NFL), but Barner was better than Atlanta's primary kick returner in putting up 24.4 yards per return…read more

  • Back at practice

    Barner (undisclosed) was back in full pads for Sunday's practice, Kelsey Conway of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Barner was forced to sit out Thursday's preseason game against the Jets and had been dealing with an undisclosed injury for the past week. Now that he's back for practice, expect him to see a bulk of the work on punt- and kick-return units.

  • Not playing Thursday

    Barner will sit out of Thursday's preseason matchup with the Jets due to an undisclosed injury, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

    Analysis: Barner sat out of Tuesday's practice with the injury after reportedly sustaining it in Monday's session. It's unclear how serious the injury is, but while the 30-year-old is out, Calvin Ridley and Marcus Green -- if he's recovered enough from his hamstring injury -- could figure to see some extra work on punt- and kick-return units Thursday.

  • No practice Tuesday

    Barner (undisclosed) did not practice Tuesday, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: Barner suffered an undisclosed injury during the latter portions of Monday's practice and has yet to retake the field. A timetable for his return isn't known. As long as Barner remains sidelined, Brian Hill and Tony Brooks-James stand to see increased opportunities.

  • Has touchdown called back

    Barner turned his lone target into a 37-yard gain during Thursday's 34-27 loss to MIami.

    Analysis: Barner caught a screen from Matt Schaub, plowed through two defenders, and streaked 37 yards down the field for what at first appeared to be a touchdown, but ultimately the replay officials determined the play should be spotted at the 1-yard line. The following play, Brian Hill vultured the touchdown from Barner, but at least the seven-year veteran made his presence felt offensively. Sixty-eight of his 186 career touches have come on kick or punt returns, and Thursday night he served as the…read more

  • Finds new home in Atlanta

    Barner signed a one-year contract with the Falcons on Thursday, Will McFadden of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Barner played in nine games between the Panthers and Patriots in 2018, carrying the ball 19 times for 71 yards. The six-year pro will provide depth in a Falcons' running back room that includes Devonta Freeman (groin), Ito Smith, Brian Hill and Jeremy Langford. He appears to have recovered after landing on IR with a knee injury Week 17 last season.

  • Placed on IR

    Barner (knee) was placed on injured reserve Friday.

    Analysis: Barner handled return duties for the Panthers from Week 13 to Week 16 before ultimately landing on IR with a knee issue. He earned just one target in the passing game with Carolina after a midseason release from the Patriots. The vacancy created by the move allowed the Panthers to promote offensive lineman Dorian Johnson from their practice squad.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    Barner (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Barner was initially announced as doubtful before he was quickly upgraded to questionable. The 29-year-old was added to the injury report as a non-participant Thursday, so the specifics of his injury remain unclear.

  • Lands on injury report

    Barner suffered a knee injury and was a non-participant at practice Thursday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Analysis: Barner wasn't listed on the injury report Wednesday, so the specifics of the issue remain unclear. The 29-year-old's participation at practice Friday should provide a better idea of his availability for Sunday's season finale against the Saints.

  • Earns first touch since return

    Barner caught his only target for a three-yard gain during Sunday's 24-10 loss to Atlanta.

    Analysis: Barner was relegated to mostly special-teams duty in his first three games with the Panthers after being scooped up off waivers from the Patriots. That changed Sunday, as the scatback recorded his first reception on either squad this season. While the Panthers haven't clarified their plans for the season finale against the Saints, there's a decent chance do-it-all lead back Christian McCaffrey is more limited than usual as Carolina looks to preserve his health heading into the offseason.

  • Could return kicks

    Barner is active for Sunday's game versus the Buccaneers, Max Henson of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Barner will make his Panthers debut after being scooped off waivers ahead of Week 11's contest. He won't get any reasonable time in the backfield behind Christian McCaffrey, but Barner may be tasked with returning kicks since Damiere Byrd (arm) is on injured reserve.

  • Inactive Week 11

    Barner (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 11 tilt against the Lions.

    Analysis: Barner and Travaris Cadet were both added to the Panthers roster this week as running back reinforcements, but neither will suit up Week 11. Barner could potentially work his way up to active status in the coming weeks behind the top duo of Christian McCaffrey and Cameron Artis-Payne.

  • Lands in Carolina

    The Panthers claimed Barner off waivers Wednesday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: After being cut loose by the Patriots earlier this week, Barner will return to the team that drafted him in the sixth round back in 2013. Carolina recently waived C.J. Anderson, so Barner will provide the team with added backfield depth behind workhorse Christian McCaffrey. Barner's impact on offense will likely be limited, but he could be a candidate for return duties.

  • Released by Patriots

    The Patriots cut Barner on Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Barner didn't contribute much to the Patriots in his five games with the club, logging just 42 offensive snaps and racking up 71 yards on 19 carries. With Rex Burkhead (neck) on the recovery trail, New England elected to use the roster spot to evaluate a player at a different position. Barner is now free to sign with another team.

  • Inactive Sunday

    Barner is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans.

    Analysis: Barner is the odd man out, with Sony Michel back from a knee injury. Meanwhile, James White is on hand to assume change-of-pace/pass-catching duties, while versatile wideout Cordarrelle Patterson is on hand in the event that Michel suffers any in-game setbacks Sunday.

  • Limited role Sunday night

    Barner was on the field for three of a possible 71 snaps on offense in Sunday night's 31-17 win over the Packers.

    Analysis: Despite the fact that Sony Michel remained out Sunday with a knee injury, Barner saw just one carry for four yards in the game. Meanwhile, James White logged 12 carries for 31 yards and versatile wideout Cordarrelle Patterson ran 11 times for 61 yards and a TD. Barner is strictly a depth option at this time and off the fantasy radar.
