JULIO HEALING
For Matt Ryan and Devonta Freeman, that meant playing one snap. For Terron Ward, it meant playing virtually the full game.
Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones,Wholesale China Jerseys, held out with an ankle injury, participated in pregame warmups and should be "super close" to full clearance for Monday's practice, according to Quinn.

Ryan handed off to Freeman on Atlanta's first play. Both jogged off the field after Freeman's 3-yard gain.

Jaguars: Nick Marshall and Josh Johnson, competing for a spot as a Jaguars backup cornerback, each had an interception. Johnson fumbled a kickoff return in the closing seconds of the first half.
"I said 'welcome back' and I got a smile," Quinn said.
So why play only one snap?
Falcons: It was a tough night for Hooper,Air Max 97 Silver, the third-round pick from Stanford. Hooper, listed as the top backup to starter Jacob Tamme, is one of five tight ends on the roster. He could fall behind D.J. Tialavea on the depth chart. The other tight ends are Levine Toilolo and Joshua Perkins.
With Freeman and top backup Tevin Coleman each limited to one carry, Ward had a busy day. The second-year back had an especially full workload after fullback Will Ratelle left with an ankle injury.
Ward is competing with rookie Brandon Wilds, held out with a knee injury, to be the third running back.
"I think it's important that we go through everything together as a team, whether they play one play or for a guy like Terron's case, nearly the whole game," Quinn said. "That's what we stand for as a team."
