Atlanta Falcons WR Julio Jones (hamstring) on Friday, Jan. 1, was ruled out of the team's Week 17 game Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Huddle Up: No surprise as Jones was unable to shake the hammy issue down the stretch, missing five of the Falcons' final six games. In all, Jones will have played in nine games, his second-lowest total in his 10 seasons. It's certainly time to wonder if the soon-to-be-32-year-old's body is signaling the end of his elite WR1 days.

Atlanta Falcons WR Julio Jones (hamstring) did not participate in practice Thursday, Dec. 31.
Huddle Up: Jones has missed the last few games and appears unlikely to play in the finale. Fantasy players can check on his status later in the week but should look for other options and keep Jones on the bench.

Atlanta Falcons WR Julio Jones (hamstring), CB Darqueze Dennard (quadriceps), DE Charles Harris (non-injury) and WR Brandon Powell (foot) did not participate in practice Thursday, Dec. 31. TE Luke Stocker (elbow), LB Foyesade Oluokun (ankle), DT Marlon Davidson (knee), DE John Cominsky (shoulder), RB Ito Smith (rib) and G James Carpenter (groin) were limited. C Matt Hennessy (knee) and DE Steven Means (hand) practiced in full. The Falcons did not practice Thursday, so the report is an estimation.

Atlanta Falcons WR Julio Jones (hamstring) didn't participate in practice Wednesday, Dec. 30.
Huddle Up: It's peculiar a player of Jones' caliber hasn't been shut down for the season with the Falcons long-eliminated from the postseason, but the team's reportedly optimistic he'll be able to play in Week 17. He'll be a top fantasy option despite the prolonged absence with the Buccaneers likely to rest key starters on the other side.

Atlanta Falcons WR Julio Jones (hamstring) worked out 'a little bit' on Monday, Dec. 28, according to interim head coach Raheem Morris, who added the team will wait 'until he is right' but also said 'if (Jones) is able to (play in Week 17), he will.'
Huddle Up: The return of Jones isn't going to help the majority of fantasy owners whose league titles were decided in Week 16, but it could obviously play a huge role in leagues with Week 17 championships. It is still more probable than not Jones sits in a meaningless game next week, but there is also no reason for him to sit if his three weeks away was just what the doctor ordered for his ailing hamstring. Jones is always a strong WR1 play, so he needs to be started in fantasy if he is active against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Updating previous reports, Atlanta Falcons WR Julio Jones (hamstring) was ruled out Friday, Dec. 25, for Week 16's game vs. the Kansas City Chiefs to be played Sunday, Dec. 27.
Huddle Up: While this is not exactly the Christmas gift fantasy gamers wanted, it comes as no surprise with nothing at stake for Atlanta ... Julio's absence means more work for WR Russell Gage and, of course, WR Calvin Ridley. It also caps QB Matt Ryan as a low-end starting consideration in deeper leagues.

Atlanta Falcons WR Julio Jones (hamstring) did not participate in practice Thursday, Dec. 24.
Huddle Up: It looks like Jones will miss another game because of the injury, but fantasy players will have an official status in the next few days. Russell Gage Jr. likely will have a bigger role if Jones is ruled out and can be a flex option in leagues.

Atlanta Falcons WR Julio Jones (hamstring) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Dec. 23.
Huddle Up: Jones has missed the last few games because of the injury and probably will sit again if he is not able to practice this week. Russell Gage Jr. has received a bigger role with Jones sidelined and can be a No. 3 receiver or flex option in leagues.

Atlanta Falcons WR Julio Jones (hamstring) will work with the trainers at practice Wednesday, Dec. 23. Interim coach Raheem Morris said Jones is a bit closer to returning.
Huddle Up: Jones would be a WR1 if he's able to suit up in Week 16.
