5 years agoAtlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (shoulder) and tight end Austin Hooper (MCL) were both limited participants in Friday's practice and head coach Dan Quinn expects both to play Sunday vs Carolina. Jones missed the game on Thanksgiving but would be a must-start WR1 assuming he's active. Hooper, one of the year's breakout stars at tight end, would also be startable, but has a tougher matchup with a Panthers Defense that allows the sixth-fewest fantasy points to opposing tight ends. Jones and Hooper being active would also help the value of quarterback Matt Ryan and take third receiver Russell Gage out of the starting mix for fantasy in standard-size leagues.--Mike Schwarzenbach - RotoBaller
