Grimes is in his sixth season with the Falcons. He earned a Pro Bowl selection in 2010 after finishing the year with 87 tackles and five interceptions. The Falcons would likely start Dunta Robinson in Grimes' cornerback spot if Grimes were forced to miss time because of the injury.
Atlanta faces Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos in Week 2.
