Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones was sent home from the facility with flu-like symptoms on Thursday.

“Julio was sent home sick today,” coach Dan Quinn said. “We fully expect him to be back tomorrow and get going for Sunday.”

Jones will be ready to play against the Cardinals  at 1 p.m. Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Also, defensive tackle Terrell McClain (toe) will not play against the Cardinals.

“We’ll hold him (out) this week,” Quinn said.

Defensive tackle Justin Zimmer will receive his snaps.
