CINCINNATI -- Atlanta Falcons defensive tackle Corey Peters, who hasn't played in a game since suffering an Achilles tear last December, is active for Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Peters is expected to be a key contributor in the defensive line rotation this season, specifically in terms of bringing pressure up the middle.

Rookie left tackle Jake Matthews is inactive, as expected, after injuring his left ankle. Gabe Carimi is expected to start at left tackle.

Also inactive for the Falcons are quarterback Sean Renfree, wide receiver Courtney Roby, cornerback Javier Arenas, linebacker Tyler Starr, center James Stone and defensive end Cliff Matthews.

Linebacker Nate Stupar is active after being inactive last week. He could be a key contributor on special teams.

Tackle Ryan Schraeder also is active after being inactive last week. He'll be the swing tackle behind Carimi and right tackle Lamar Holmes with Jake Matthews out.
