Julio Jones (hamstring) joins Falcons practice Thursday
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring) returned to practice on Thursday.
What It Means:
Jones sat out practice Wednesday and Thursday last week before returning Friday for a limited session. He then went out and dominated on gameday with 8 catches for 137 yards and 2 touchdowns on 10 targets. Jones appears to be even healthier for Week 7 ahead of the Falcons' contest against the Detroit Lions on Sunday. In the two games he logged at least an 80.0 percent offensive snap share this season, Jones averaged 8.5 catches on 11.0 targets for 147.0 yards with 2 touchdowns.
numberFire's models expect Julio to draw 9.0 targets and score 12.8 FanDuel points on Sunday. He has a salary of $8,300 on the Week 7 main slate and is the WR15 in our weekly fantasy rankings. Per our advanced defensive metrics, the Lions rank 16th against the pass.
