  • Makes 14 appearances

    Ishmael picked up 41 tackles, two tackles for loss, and a forced fumble across 14 appearances (including three starts) for the Falcons in 2019.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old Ishmael has been a stalwart on Atlanta's game-day roster over the past six campaigns, averaging 15.2 appearances per season between 2014 and 2019. He saw an uptick in defensive involvement after Keanu Neal (Achilles) suffered a season-ending injury Sept. 22, fielding at least 37 snaps for Atlanta's defense in every game between Weeks 3 and 7. Ishmael averaged just 5.9 defensive snaps per game Weeks 8 through 17, but he remained one of the Falcons' more integral special-teams…read more

  • Not on injury report

    Ishmael (concussion) is not listed on the Falcons' injury report for Tuesday, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: All signs are pointing to Ishmael's availability for Thursday's game against the Saints. Assuming he continues symptom-free, he should provide depth in Atlanta's secondary.

  • Estimated as full participant

    Ishmael (concussion) was listed as a full participant on Monday's estimated injury report, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: Ishmael missed the last two games with the concussion but may be able to return for Thursday's matchup with New Orleans. However, the Falcons didn't actually practice Monday and the 28-year-old hasn't officially cleared the concussion protocol, so there's a chance he could miss another contest.

  • Won't face Bucs

    Ishmael (concussion) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: Ishmael will miss a second consecutive game while tending to a head injury. He plays a valuable rotational role in Atlanta's defense, providing depth at both safety and linebacker. Before retaking the field, Ishmael will need to fully clear the league's five-step concussion protocol.

  • Held out Wednesday

    Ishmael (concussion) did not participate during Wednesday's practice session, Jason Butt of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: A valuable rotational piece capable of lining up at both linebacker and safety, Ishmael missed his first game of 2019 when he sat out Atlanta's Week 11 matchup against the Panthers. He sustained a concussion during the Week 10 upset of the Saints, but, prior to that outing, he had fielded 30-plus percent of the Falcons' defensive snaps in each of the preceding six games. In order to suit up for a crucial Week 12 game against the Buccaneers, Ishmael first will have to clear the concussion…read more

  • Out Week 12

    Ishmael (concussion) was ruled out for Sunday's game at Carolina, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ishmael suffered the concussion on kickoff coverage during last week's win over the Saints and was unable to practice this week. The 28-year-old will remain sidelined until he fully clears the concussion protocol. The potential return of CB Desmond Trufant (toe) looms large for Atlanta's injury-plagued secondary.

  • Misses Wednesday's session

    Ishmael (concussion) did not participate during practice Wednesday, Jason Butt of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Ishmael sustained the concussion while running downfield on kickoff coverage late in the fourth quarter of Atlanta's Week 10 win against New Orleans, and popped up on the injury report to kick off the week of preparation for Carolina. Coach Dan Quinn has not yet spelled out Ishmael's expected recovery timeline, but he will have to pass the league's concussion protocol before returning to game action. Whether that comes in Week 11 remains up in the air, as Atlanta's defense prepares to take on a…read more

  • Nine stops versus Titans

    Ishmael made nine tackles (one solo) in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: The Falcons struggled against Marcus Mariota, allowing him to throw for 227 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions. Nevertheless, Ishmael ended the contest with a decent stat line in his first start of the season in place of Keanu Neal (Achilles). There may be growing pains as Ishmael adjusts, but it appears he's filling in decently for now.

  • Taking over at strong safety

    Ishmael is expected to start at strong safety with Keanu Neal (Achilles) out for the season, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Although the Falcons will likely look to free agency for additional depth or a possible starter, Ishmael looks set to start in Week 4's game versus the Titans. The 28-year-old made six solo tackles after Neal exited this past Sunday's game versus the Colts. His starting experience is limited, but he may have decent IDP value for the time being.

  • Getting ample reps at safety

    Ishmael is expected to field the majority of his practice snaps at safety following Monday's season-ending injury to J.J. Wilcox (knee-ACL), D. Orlando Ledbetter of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Analysis: The Falcons are surveying contingency plans by providing Ishmael with substantial reps at safety, a position he has familiarity with after playing four collegiate seasons as a defensive back, and being selected as Conference USA Defensive Player of the Year (2012) during his time at Central Florida. Ishmael began his career with Atlanta as a safety and worked his way up to being a 10-game starter at the position in 2014, but the majority of his defensive snaps over the past two years have come…read more

  • Re-ups with Atlanta

    Ishmael re-signed with the Falcons on Wednesday on a one-year contract, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ishmael returns to Atlanta on a one-year deal for the third consecutive offseason. He was rarely needed on defense in 2018, but the 2013 seventh-round pick was a solid contributor on special teams and should serve the Falcons well in that capacity again in 2019.

  • Key special teams contributor

    Ishmael recorded 21 tackles, one pass deflection and one recovered fumble for the Falcons this season.

    Analysis: The veteran Ishmael saw a significant drop-off in his defensive involvement in 2018, failing to record a start for the first time since his rookie season, and fielding just 63 defensive snaps compared to 115 in 2017. He was, however, a crucial component to Atlanta's improvement in kick coverage, playing 74.6 percent of the special teams snaps for a Falcons unit that improved from 32nd in yards allowed per kick return last year to 17th in 2018.
