Falcons long snapper Josh Harris returned to practice Tuesday with a left hip injury.
Harris, who didn't practice on Sunday and Monday, was limited in practice and rotated with practice squad snapper Jeff Overbaugh. Harris declined to speak to the media after practice and referred all questions to head coach Dan Quinn.
Harris has played in 103 consecutive games for the Falcons dating back to 2012 when the Carrollton native made the team as an undrafted player from Auburn.
“He’s certainly a model of consistency,” Quinn said after practice Tuesday. “We limited him today and we are going to take it all the way up to the game to see what he looks like.”
If Harris can’t play in the regular-season opener against the Eagles on Thursday, the Falcons will call up Overbaugh from the practice squad.
Overbaugh has played in three NFL games with the Vikings, including two playoff games last season.
Guard Ben Garland (calf) and cornerback Blidi Wreh-Wilson (shoulder) did not practice. Cornerback Isaiah Oliver (ankle) was limited.
Safety Ricardo Allen (thigh), wide receiver Marvin Hall (ankle), linebacker Deion Jones (hamstring) and linebacker Foye Oluokun (ankle) fully participated in practice.
