Falcons Injury Report: Julio Jones, Asante Samuel

The Atlanta Falcons head into their Week 12 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with two starters questionable after exiting last weekend’s contest against the Arizona Cardinals; wide receiver Julio Jones and cornerback Asante Samuel. Jones entered the Cardinals’ game as questionable due to a right ankle injury. After catching three passes for 33 yards against Arizona, he exited the contest after aggravating his ankle injury. He is considered questionable to play against the Buccaneers. Samuel wasn’t injured prior to Sunday’s game against Arizona, but the All-Pro cornerback exited the contest in first quarter with a right shoulder injury. He sustained the injury while trying to tackle Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald. Samuel didn’t return and is also considered questionable for Sunday’s matchup with Tampa Bay.
