Ebiketie added a pair of additional quarterback hits to his first sack of the season, a first-quarter takedown of Dak Prescott.

Ebiketie has played over half of the Falcons' defensive snaps in three of his past four games after doing so only once through the season's first five weeks.
Ebiketie is listed as one of the starting outside linebackers on the Falcons' official depth chart, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports. Atlanta made a splash late in training camp by signing Justin Simmons and trading for Matthew Judon. Both newcomers are listed as backups on the depth chart, but that's expected to change once they get acclimated to the Falcons' system. Ebiketie and Lorenzo Carter are expected to compete for the other starting outside linebacker spot when Judon is up to full speed.
