The Falcons may need a “Julio Takeover” game Thursday against the rival Saints.
Julio Jones, who did not practice this week, is expected to rise up and play against the Saints.
He’s been bottled up in the past two games, as Houston and Washington elected to bracket him with two defenders.
After catching nine, 13 and 12 passes in the first three games, Jones caught four passes for 38 yards against Houston and five for 67 yards against Washington.
