Norwood back at Falcons' practice

By
Nov 19, 2009

FLOWERY BRANCH -- Running back Jerious Norwood, who has missed the last four games with a hip flexor, returned to practice on Thursday.

Getting Norwood back would be a boost to the Falcons' offense because fellow running back Michael Turner might not play Sunday against the Giants due to an ankle sprain he suffered against Carolina last Sunday.
