Trufant, Allen join list of Falcons not playing in Jacksonville; Bryant to kick once more

The Atlanta Falcons will rest a handful of notable faces in their third preseason go-around against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The Athletic’s Jason Butt reports that secondary starters Desmond Trufant and Ricardo Allen will not play Saturday night, joining guys like Julio Jones, Deion Jones, Devonta Freeman and Marvin Hall as notable faces on the sideline.

It’s said, though, that “Money” Matt Bryant will get his first action of the season. David Marvin is more than capable of fielding the latter-game kicking duties, so the team might just trying to be getting Old Man Money a few reps in to loosen him up for Philadelphia.
