Julio Jones is inactive for Atlanta’s game against the Carolina Panthers, leaving the Falcons without their top wide receiver for the second game in three weeks.
Jones had been listed as questionable after missing practice throughout the week with a hamstring injury. He was held out of the second half of Monday night’s loss at Green Bay with the injury after missing the Falcons’ loss to Chicago on Sept. 27.
Falcons safety Jaylinn Hawkins also is inactive with a concussion. Even so, the winless Falcons’ secondary gets a boost with safeties Keanu Neal (hamstring) and Ricardo Allen (elbow) returning from injuries.
