Gabriel has played 89 offensive snaps in five games while catching eight passes for 107 yards. He’s also played 38 snaps on special teams.

Goodwin has played 131 snaps on special teams over six games while serving as a primary “gunner” on punt returns. He’s also played three defensive snaps.

Running back Tevin Coleman did not practice Wednesday after he left Sunday’s game because of a hamstring injury. The Falcons said Coleman suffered a strain.

“He’s feeling better, for sure,” coach Dan Quinn said. “I won’t get into the degrees of (the strain), but we’re hopeful it’s going to be shorter (rather than) longer. He felt good today. He’ll participate in some running and rehab.”
