Oct. 13, 2010 1:10 p.m. - WR Michael Jenkins (shoulder) on playing this week after missing the first five games: "Even just trying to sleep last night, just thinking about finally getting into playing a game ... It's been a while. It's the longest I've ever been out." Falcons RapidReports

Well you know Roddy isn't hurting in the cast department either.

[monoxide]

she can be our new superstition. When we make it to the Super Bowl, maybe even give her a sideline pass. I remember reading a article in reference to her and she sounded like a great lady who loved football.
