Atlanta Falcons wide receivers Roddy White and Julio Jones were limited in Wednesday's practice according to the Falcons official Twitter account. The feed did note however that players that were limited today were mostly due some extra rest and it seems to be nothing to worry about in regards to Sunday's game against the Chargers. Both receivers have been effective in the early going and have steered clear of any notable injuries.
Roddy White and Julio Jones Limited In Practice, Fantasy Value Likely Fine
Roddy White and Julio Jones were limited in Wednesday practice. We break down the fantasy implications.
Fantasy Analysis: You would like to see all of your fantasy football players avoid any injury reports, but this is the norm in the tough and physical NFL, where sometimes a player just needs extra rest and the Falcons just played on Monday night. The extra day of limited practice will help Jones and White be prepared for the shorter layoff against a San Diego team that has efficiently shutdown the Raiders and Titans passing games so far. Both should still be considered must-starts for week 3.
