Julio Jones Unsure If He'll Play Sunday
5 years agoAtlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones said he's trying to be out there for Week 1 against the Vikings, but "he doesn't know" if he'll play if he doesn't have a new contract. This is the last thing Jones' fantasy owners wanted to hear with the regular season opener just a few days away. Jones might also be dealing with an undisclosed injury or a personal issue, so stay tuned for more details. Even in a tough matchup against Minnesota on the road, Jones would be a locked-in WR1 if he plays. If he sits out, Calvin Ridley and Mohamed Sanu would be the top two receivers, while tight end Austin Hooper would also become more attractive as a TE1.
