Falcons WR Jones 'ready to go' after ankle injury

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones, coming off an ankle injury, is fully "ready to go" in Sunday's season opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, coach Dan Quinn said Friday.

Jones injured an ankle in the third preseason game. He was limited as the start of this week's practice but returned to full participation Thursday.

"Really, he was feeling good yesterday and today,'' Quinn said following Friday's practice. "It was just an important part to stay true to the process of getting back where he's healthy and feeling right; make sure that he got the right stuff that he needs for the plays to make that connection between him and Matt (Ryan) feel right.
