6 years agoAtlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said defensive end Takkarist McKinley (groin) and running back Devonta Freeman (knee) will return to practice this week. "Definitely Takk is going to practice some today," Quinn told "The Morning Show with John and Hugh" on Wednesday morning. "Devonta and Derrick are definitely trending up, they'll be able to participate in some of the walkthroughs and they're getting closer, for sure. Once we know they can do what they do, the full explosion to go, that's where we're at." Freeman has missed the last two games, but it's unknown if he'll be able to return even if he practices this week. The Falcons desperately need McKinley back after losing safeties Keanu Neal (knee) and Ricardo Allen (Achilles) and linebacker Deion Jones (knee) for the season.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
