Atlanta Falcons defensive end John Abraham is officially listed as questionable for the team's NFC Divisional Playoff game against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.

Abraham was limited in practice all week because of a sprained ankle, which he suffered in the Falcons' regular-season finale against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Dec. 30.

The 34-year-old led the Falcons with 10 sacks this season and also recorded 35 tackles along with seven passes defensed.

Cornerback Dunta Robinson was also injured during the game against the Bucs when he sustained a concussion, however he passed the league's concussion protocol earlier in the week and was a full participant during all three practice sessions. He is listed as probable for Sunday's game.

In other injury related news, cornerback Chris Owens has been declared out with a hamstring injury after not practicing all week and safety Charles Mitchell is listed as questionable with a calf injury.

Safety William Moore (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday and Thursday's practice sessions, however practiced fully on Friday and is listed as probable.
