Quote:FLOWERY BRANCH — Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones has a hamstring injury and will not play against Carolina on Sunday, head coach Mike Smith said on Wednesday.

Also tight end Tony Gonzalez (elbow), safety William Moore (shoulder), right guard Garrett Reynolds (ankle), defensive end John Abraham (hip/groin), center Todd McClure (knee) and Christopher Owens (concussion protocol) all did not practice on Wednesday.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, this may not be a bad thing. Without Jones, we may get HD the ball more and actually play Kerry Meier. We may even go back to our ball control offense that worked so well last season.
