Jones had been dealing with a hamstring injury that kept him out of action on both Wednesday and Thursday, although it was never considered to be a threat to his Sunday availability. Jones is listed as "probable" on the injury report, and should be expected to start as usual vs. the New York Giants.
Fantasy Spin: Jones’ fantasy owners can go ahead and exhale a long, deep sigh. A full practice and a “probable” designation is the best news they could have hoped for amid ominous news of a hamstring injury. The Falcons’ stud wide out is coming off of a crooked 9-141-2 line from Week 1 and can be placed in his usual WR slot in lineups across the board.
Jones is the consensus No. 1 receiver in SB Nation’s fantasy rankings for Week 2. Start him as usual.
