Jones returned after tweaking his foot

Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones, who is coming back from a broken foot, appeared to hurt his foot in the fourth quarter on Sunday.

He stayed down on the field on one knee for a while, but then eventually got up and ran off the field.

“To my knowledge he is,” Falcons coach Mike Smith said. “He went back in and he played. I have not had an opportunity to visit with the trainers. But he did go back in and play.”

Jones finished with seven catches for 88 yards and one touchdown.
