Falcons still hurting
Falcons Bye Football Heal
In this Sept. 22 file photo, Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Harry Douglas runs with the ball during the first half of a game against the Miami Dolphins. The Falcons are giving predictably positive quotes about the possibility of Kevin Cone, Drew Davis and Harry Douglas stepping in for an injured Julio Jones at wide receiver.
FLOWERY BRANCH — The Atlanta Falcons returned from their bye week Tuesday with big holes to fill on offense. Running back Steven Jackson was only an observer and wide receiver Roddy White and left tackle Sam Baker were not on the field for the portion of the practice open to reporters. White, already slowed by a right ankle sprain, left the Falcons' 30-28 loss to the New York Jets on Oct. 7 with a hamstring injury.
