The Falcons held their walk-through indoors, but will practice outdoors on the practice field behind Husky Stadium today.

“We’ll go outside in the weather today,” Falcons coach Dan Quinn said. “In the Pacific Northwest there are rainy days and sunny days. But they are all good days because it’s football weather. We’ll be out in it because we may have to be Sunday. It’s a good opportunity for us.”
