FLOWERY BRANCH – Falcons defensive tackle Jonathan Babineaux, who was drafted in the second round of the 2005 NFL draft out of Iowa, is still making plays for the defense.
He’s turned in two strong performances this season as the Falcons (2-0) are set to face the Dallas Cowboys (2-0) at 1 p.m. Sunday at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Tex.
Babineaux, a native of Port Arthur, Texas, is excited about returning his home-state and will have about 20 family members and friends on hand for the game.
