The Atlanta Falcons are coming into the game against the Houston Texans all banged up. Running back Michael Turner has been hampered by a quad injury that had him miss two practices this week, but Turner did practice in a limited fashion on Friday and is officially listed as questionable. Wide receiver Julio Jones also missed two days of practice due to his lingering hamstring injury that has not allowed him to be 100 percent over the past two months. Both Jones and Turner are expected to play on Sunday.
Atlanta will be going up against a depleted Texans quarterback situation as third-string quarterback T.J. Yates is the starter and is replacing Matt Leinart who broke his collar bone last week when he was filing in for starter Matt Schaub who is out for the year with a lisfranc injury.
Game Date/Time: Sunday, Dec. 4, 1 p.m. ET
