The Falcons had a 15 minute photo shoot of their offseason program on Wednesday.
Several key players including quarterback Matt Ryan were on hand during the open session.
Strong safety Keanu Knee (knee), free safety Ricardo Allen and running back Devonta Freeman (sports hernia) were also present.
Noticeably absent was wide receiver Julio Jones.
Here are some tweets from the sessions:
Didn’t see Ricardo Allen (Achilles) doing much lifting. Was doing some foot works and pulls.

#Falcons TE Austin Hooper said he’s looking forward to working with new position coach Mike Mularkey. Said the passing attack is more steps base than depth base. Looking forward to working with Matt Ryan again this offseason. pic.twitter.com/GEJyCTUWfn
