Falcons lose Ryan, Turner to injury

"The Falcons' win over Tampa Bay came at a considerable price.

Over the course of the game, quarterback Matt Ryan, running back Michael Turner, guard Harvey Dahl and, depending on whom you ask, offensive tackle Sam Baker all left the game with injuries. Their prognoses for Sunday's game against Philadelphia and beyond are uncertain.

Ryan was out after the first series with a toe injury on his right foot, replaced by Chris Redman. Turner left in the third quarter after reinjuring his right ankle.

Dahl and Baker left in the first half. According to a press box announcement, Dahl injured his right ankle and Achilles tendon. While coach Mike Smith said Baker was "banged up in a number of areas," Baker said he was taken out of the game for Will Svitek because of his performance.

Smith was typically reticent in discussing the injuries following the game.

"Guys, I really wish I could tell you," Smith said of Ryan. "I know that he's in the training room. He's been looked at. I know it's a toe injury. When we get to Wednesday and see where he's at, we'll have a little bit better prognosis." "
