FLOWERY BRANCH – With wide receivers Leonard Hankerson and Nick Williams missing practice with hamstring injuries on Wednesday, fourth-round pick Justin Hardy appears set to make his debut against Tampa Bay at 1 p.m. on Sunday at the Georgia Dome.
Hardy, who played at East Carolina, starred during the exhibition season, but he needed some time to help comprehend the Falcons’ playbook.
“We didn’t have a playbook at ECU,” Hardy said.
