Dalman (ankle) is active for Sunday's matchup versus the Broncos, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Dalman landed on IR in late September and was designated to return Oct. 30. He's been working his way back since then and was activated off injured reserve Saturday. Dalman played 100 percent of the Falcons' defensive snaps each of the first two weeks this season. Coach Raheem Norris said earlier this week that Dalman will start once he's back in action, per McElhaney, so Ryan Neuzil will likely return to a depth option despite his strong play of late.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
A 2021 fourth-round pick out of Stanford, Dalman took over as the starting center in 2022 after operating as a backup behind Matt Hennessy as a rookie. Dalman started all 17 games last year and is slated to reprise the same role in 2023.
Dalman was drafted by the Falcons in the fourth round of the 2021 NFL Draft and operated as the backup center to Matt Hennessy last year after losing the training-camp competition. However, the Stanford product is getting another shot at the starting gig, splitting time with Hennessy during training camp ahead of the 2022 season.
Atlanta selected Dalman in the fourth round of the 2021 NFL Draft to be a depth piece behind new starter Matthew Hennessy. Dalman likely won't be the immediate backup this season due to free-agent acquisition Josh Andrews who has much more experience at the NFL level. The rookie center has a lot of competition at his position so unless injuries threaten the team's depth, it would be surprising to see him on the field for any substantial amount of time.
