Player Notes

RT Jermey Parnell who will become the only starter on the offensive line to have started all 12 games come this Sunday, practiced on a limited basis on Wednesday due to a knee injury.

DE Calais Campbell was limited in Wednesday's practice with an ankle injury.

DT Marcell Dareus, who missed last week's game against Buffalo, practiced Wednesday on a limited basis.

T Josh Walker, who has missed the last two games with a foot/ankle injury, returned to practice on a limited basis on Wednesday.

FS Tashaun Gipson Sr. was held out of Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury.

WR DJ Chark Jr. who missed last week's game due to a quadriceps injury, remained out and missed Wednesday's practice.

CB Jalen Ramsey did not practice on Wednesday due to a knee injury. It's an injury that has hampered Ramsey for several weeks now.

CB Desmond Trufant played through a bothersome thigh last week against the Saints and did not produce one of his more memorable games. Head coach Dan Quinn said, "I'm more than pleased with the way he's responded over the last few weeks."

RB Devonta Freeman could return by the end of the season. He is back in Atlanta and head coach Dan Quinn said he would have a better assessment on the Pro Bowl tailback later in the week. It may be unlikely that the team would push him to return now that playoff hopes are all but finished.

QB Matt Ryan still passed for 377 yards against the Saints, but was intercepted once and lost a fumble. Ryan was sacked six times, matching the season high against the Steelers. He was also the team's rushing leader for the first time in his career.
