Quinn on Julio Jones: 'We’ll get him back here shortly'

Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones’ injury was changed from a turf toe to a sprained toe Wednesday by coach Dan Quinn.

“The good news is that a sprained toe is definitely better than turf toe which can linger or has more ramifications with how you treat it,” Quinn said. “A sprain is definitely something that is going to get better faster than a long term turf toe that can need more work. That’s the good news.”

Jones, who didn’t play against the Rams on Sunday, did not practice Wednesday. Quinn continued to say that Jones is “day to day.”

“We’ll get him back here shortly,” Quinn said. “… The good news is it’s not something that’s going to be a long-term thing.”

Quinn apologized for the injury change.

“I didn’t have enough information medically to speak on it,” Quinn said. “It’s something I should have cleared up last week. I apologize for that.”
