Julio Jones Absent From Practice Wednesday
4 years agoAtlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring) did not take part in practice on Wednesday. It seems as though Jones is rarely healthy, but he usually plays through the pain. The All-Pro veteran had six catches for 94 yards in last week's loss to the Saints a week after missing a game. The 31-year-old gets the Chargers in Week 14, a team that has been very solid against receivers this season. However, Jones has three 100-yard games and has seen double-digit targets four different times this year. His fantasy managers would like to see more touchdowns (only three) but he remains a high-end NFL wideout that should remain in the WR1 ranks, if he's active. Jones has been a stud for so long, you wouldn't want to bench him now in the first round of the fantasy postseason.
