Leonard Hankerson (rib) goes to Falcons' locker room

Atlanta Falcons' wide receiver Leonard Hankerson exited Sunday's game with a rib injury and went to the locker room.

What It Means:

The team said that he will undergo X-rays, as he appeared to be having trouble standing up straight. With Julio Jones (hamstring) a game-time decision and limping on the field, the Falcons have inserted to slot man Nick Williams in three-wide sets across from veteran Roddy White.

Hankerson had one catch for 13 yards before departing. His 1.00 per-play Reception Net Expected Points (NEP) ranks fifth among receivers with 20 or more targets going into Week 5. His 29.09 raw Reception NEP stands 15th among the same players. White (5.92 Reception NEP) ranks 41st among receivers with less than 20 targets, and Williams (3.38) ranks 65th.
