Falcons' Ross Dwelley: Expected to be block-first TE
Dwelley made the Falcons' initial 53-man roster Tuesday, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports.
Dwelley and Charlie Woerner signed similar contracts this offseason and will start the campaign as backups to Kyle Pitts. Dwelley played sparingly on offense in San Francisco, but he's a stout blocker and will be involved in Atlanta's running game, per Josh Kendall of The Athletic.

Falcons' Ross Dwelley: Finds new home in Atlanta
The Falcons signed Dwelley (ankle) on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Dwelley finished last season on injured reserve after sustaining an ankle injury, but it now seems as if he's moved past the issue. After spending the first six seasons of his NFL career with the 49ers, the 29-year-old tight end has agreed to terms with the Falcons. Across his last three seasons, Dwelley has appeared in 41 games and made two starts, catching eight of his 12 targets for 168 yards and two touchdowns. Despite his underwhelming offensive production, the San Diego product has been a consistent contributor on special teams (619 snaps over the last three years), and he's expected to compete for a similar role in Atlanta.

49ers' Ross Dwelley: Lands on IR
The 49ers placed Dwelley (ankle) to the injured reserve Saturday.
Dwelley sustained a high-ankle sprain in Week 13 against the Eagles. He hasn't managed to suit up since, and with his placement on IR, his season is officially over since the 49ers have a max of four games left. Dwelley had one catch on two targets for 12 yards over 12 games this season, operating mostly as a pass-blocking tight end and special-teams player.

49ers' Ross Dwelley: Misses another practice
Dwelley (ankle) did not practice Friday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Dwelley has missed San Francisco's past two games due to an ankle injury, and his chance of playing Monday against Baltimore isn't strong given that he has sat out the team's first two practices this week. In fact, the veteran tight end hasn't been able to practice at all since getting hurt Week 13 versus Philadelphia. Brayden Willis could continue to see a handful of snaps on offense Monday if Dwelley is sidelined again.

49ers' Ross Dwelley: Missing another game
Dwelley (ankle) won't play in Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Dwelley is dealing with a high-ankle sprain, and he wasn't able to practice at all this week. He also missed last Sunday's win over the Seahawks, giving Brayden Willis the chance to see his first action since Week 4. Dwelley's Week 15 absence won't set off many alarms in fantasy circles, as he's made just one catch (on two targets) over 12 games this season.

49ers' Ross Dwelley: Won't play Sunday
Dwelley (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Dwelley sustained a right high-ankle sprain in the 49ers' Week 13 win over the Eagles. He was unable to participate in practice all week and is set to miss his first game of the year. In Dwelley's absence, Brayden Willis is set to step into the No. 3 tight end role behind George Kittle and Charlie Woerner.

49ers' Ross Dwelley: Misses practice Wednesday
Dwelley (ankle) did not practice Wednesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Dwelley's absence from the practice field Wednesday was expected, as he suffered a right high-ankle sprain in Sunday's win over Philadelphia and is expected to miss some time. The veteran tight end has worked primarily on special teams this season, and he's logged more than four offensive snaps just once since Week 5. As such, his likely absence against Seattle this coming Sunday shouldn't have a significant impact on San Francisco's offensive game plan.

49ers' Ross Dwelley: Nursing high ankle sprain
San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Dwelley sustained a right high-ankle sprain in Sunday's 42-19 win over the Eagles and is expected to miss time, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Dwelley has just one reception for 12 yards on two targets this season, but he's been active for all 12 of San Francisco's games and fills a key role as a blocker and on special teams. Assuming the ankle sprain results in Dwelley missing this Sunday's game against the Seahawks, seventh-round rookie Brayden Willis could suit up as the 49ers' No. 3 tight end behind George Kittle and Charlie Woerner.
