Done for Week 18
Hennessy (knee) will not return Sunday against the Buccaneers, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
ANALYSIS
Hennessy's absence will leave the team down its starting left guard for the remainder of the contest. In his absence, Colby Gossett will likely handle the position.
