Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Roddy White was limited in practice on Thursday as the Falcons prepare for the Denver Broncos on Monday Night Football. White is apparently suffering from a groin injury, but it is not expected to cause him any missed time and he is likely just getting a little bit of extra rest this week. The veteran receiver had 6 catches for 87 yards in their week 1 win over the Chiefs.

Fantasy Analysis: Week 1 of the new offense was a rousing success under offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter in Atlanta's 40-24 win over Kansas City. While Julio Jones had the bigger day with 108 yards and two touchdowns, I expect that they will interchange between who has more fantasy value on any given week but also both be WR1s this season. The groin issue seems like a non-issue, but it's worth keeping an eye on the injury report.
