Atlanta Falcons receiver Julio Jones currently ranks fourth in the NFL for receiving yards with 204 yards and has been a big beneficiary of Matt Ryan's NFL-leading 679 passing yards. Jones has an NFL-high six catches for more than 20 yards and has caught 14 of his 22 targets.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 3: Julio Jones
Sometimes it’s tough to start a guy on a short week. Should fantasy owners worried about Julio Jones.


He's a little banged up with an ankle injury, but is fully expected to play against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday night football. The Bucs have fared well against the pass so far, but they've also only gone up against quarterbacks Derek Anderson and Austin Davis, so we really can't give them too much credit.
Julio is still going to be the focal point of the offense and the Falcons should play well, especially at home. There’s really no reason why he would be on your bench and is a top-five option in fantasy leagues. He just needs to stay healthy.
