Falcons' Julio Jones (hamstring) a game-time decision in Week 12
The Atlanta Falcons are expected to see how Julio Jones' hamstring fares in warm-ups before today's game before deciding whether or not he will play.
What It Means:
Jones is on the wrong side of the questionable tag here after failing to practice on Friday despite practicing in a limited fashion earlier in the week. Jones has been known to play through injuries, but even if he plays in Week 12 he will be at high risk for reinjury.
If Jones is unable to suit up, the Falcons could call on Olamide Zaccheaus to step up again. Zaccheaus has games of 86 and 103 yards so far this season when he has been given significant snaps. His salary on FanDuel this week is just $4,600.
