Falcons All-Pro edge rusher Vic Beasley is set to return to action against the Miami Dolphins at 1 p.m. on Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Beasley, who’s recovering from a pulled hamstring injury, is listed as probable on the injury report. He suffered the injury in the second game of the season against Green Bay on Sep. 17.
“I feel like this is an injury, something that I can play through,” Beasley said on Friday. “Things are not going to be 100 percent because during the season everybody is pretty much banged up with something or some type of injury.”
Beasley led the league in sacks with 15.5 last season and has two sacks and two quarterback hits this season.
“I feel good enough to do what I normally do,” Beasley said.
He believes he can play his full load of snaps against the Dolphins.
“I feel like we are just going to see how it’s going to go in the game,” Beasley said. “If I feel like I can go farther that I’m capable of, I’ll go.”
When he was injured, Beasley immediately reached back for his right hamstring.
“I’ve never felt anything like that before,” Beasley said. “When I pulled it, I knew it was injured when (it happened.)”
He was limited early in the week in practice, but took on more work as the week progressed.
“Practice went well, I feel pretty good,” Beasley said.
