FLOWERY BRANCH – Gino Gradkowski, who took the “majority” of the practice snaps with the starters, is expected to start at center for the Falcons (8-7) against the Saints (6-9) at 1 p.m. Sunday at the Georgia Dome.
“Gradkowski had a good bulk of the reps,” Falcons coach Dan Quinn said.
Mike Person had another bad snap against the Panthers and was now competing this week with Gradkowski.
Person tossed a close shotgun snap back too fast. Panthers cornerback Josh Norman recovered and ball.
