Falcons injury report: Crawford, Julio Jones limited
Falcons defensive end Jack Crawford (shoulder) and wide receiver Julio Jones (back) were limited in practice on Wednesday, according to the team’s official injury report, in advance of Sunday’s home game against the Buffalo Bills.
Falcons defensive end Vic Beasley, who’s recovering from a hamstring strain/tear injury, was slated to start running with the trainers off to the side at practice Wednesday.
