The Falcons placed right tackle Kaleb McGary, backup tackle Matt Gono and reserve defensive tackle Deadrin Senat on the physically-unable-to-perform list Wednesday.

The Falcons are set to open camp Thursday.

All three missed time over the offseason with undisclosed injuries. Gono reported for player check-in Tuesday while wearing a neck brace.

McGary has entered the past two seasons as the starting right tackle.

Unlike in-season PUP designations that require players to miss a set amount of time before returning to the roster, players placed on the PUP list during training camp can be activated at any time.
