Series Falcons lead the series 6–4 after meeting No. 10 since 1999 Full series history
San Francisco needed the spot to bring back Ogbo Okoronkwo, ending the four-time Pro Bowl pass rusher's stay after less than two weeks.
Atlanta will play Sunday night without its veteran edge rusher, who has concussion and neck injuries, and lost a linebacker to injured reserve on the eve of Baltimore's visit.
The fullback has a hyperextended knee and a bone bruise from Sunday's win over Denver, and Kyle Shanahan will spread his role among the tight ends for the trip to Seattle.
