Atlanta Falcons pass rusher Jalon Walker was carted off the field with a leg injury at training camp on Tuesday.

The 2025 first-round draft pick is feared to have torn his left ACL and will undergo an MRI exam, NFL Network reported.

Walker sustained the injury during a two-minute simulation in a non-padded, 11-on-11 practice.

Teammates took a knee and surrounded Walker as he was being treated, bringing an end to Tuesday’s session.

Walker, 22, had 5.5 sacks, two forced fumbles and 36 tackles in 15 games (nine starts) in 2025 after being selected with the 15th overall pick out of Georgia.
