Falcons' Freeman in concussion protocol, will miss next preseason game

Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman is in concussion protocol and will not play in the team's next preseason game Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers, head coach Dan Quinn announced Monday.

The lead running back suffered the injury during Sunday's practice, and ultimately exited the session.

He had just one catch and a single carry in limited action during the team's first preseason game of the year Thursday against the Miami Dolphins.
