Falcons' Julio Jones ruled out vs. Raiders with hamstring injury

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones will not suit up against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday due to a hamstring injury, the team announced. He'll join star running back Todd Gurley, who also has an injury, on the sideline. 

Jones has been dealing with hamstring issues throughout the season and previously missed Week 3 against the Chicago Bears and Week 5 against the Carolina Panthers. 

In eight games this season, the seven-time Pro Bowler has 45 receptions for 677 yards and three touchdowns. 

With Jones sidelined, the Falcons will be forced to rely on Calvin Ridley, Russell Gage, Christian Blake and Brandon Powell. 

The Falcons are 3-7 on the season, and it won't be easy for  to take down Las Vegas without their top wide receiver.
