Falcons S Richie Grant earns elite rating in Week 10

The Atlanta Falcons dropped to 4-6 after suffering back-to-back losses in Weeks 9 and 10. While they are still very much alive in a subpar NFC South division, Thursday night’s double-digit loss to the Panthers was a reminder of just how far the Falcons have to go before they can be considered a legitimate contender.

There are still seven games remaining, though, and not everyone played poorly in Week 10. Safety Richie Grant was a major bright spot as the Falcons undermanned secondary held the Panthers passing offense to 101 yards.

Grant nearly had a late interception and finished the game with eight tackles and two passes defended. Pro Football Focus gave Grant an elite rating of 91.7 for his Week 10 performance.

Wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge led the offense with a 93.1 overall grade. Hodge finished with two catches for 37 receiving yards, including a 25-yard touchdown. Here are PFF‘s 15 highest-graded Falcons in Week 10.
