CB A.J. Terrell is considered "week-to-week", which almost certainly means he's out for Week 8.
CB Dee Alford is considered "day-to-day"
S Jaylinn Hawkins is in the concussion protocol and has already been declared out.
Arthur Smith said that fellow cornerback Dee Alford was day-to-day, meaning that Terrell's hamstring injury is almost certainly more severe than Alford's.
At this point, it seems likely that Terrell will not suit up for Week 8's contest against the Carolina Panthers.
On the season, Terrell has 29 total tackles (20 solo), with one fumble recovery and five passes defended.
The Falcons could be extremely shorthanded in their secondary this coming week, as Jaylinn Hawkins, Terrell, Casey Hayward and Dee Alford are all questionable for Week 8.
