    Get used to watching Michael Turner doing his best Roddy White impression. It certainly seems like his pass-catching abilities — perhaps the best kept secret in the NFL — are going to be on display more and more.

    The news that backup tackle Will Svitek would be out for the season that came earlier this week was tough to take for a lot of reasons. For a close-knit group at offensive line, it was downright devastating. The off-field emotions of feeling for a teammate have been difficult to come to terms with, but [...]

    Last year was a whirlwind for Julio Jones. Drafted by the Falcons after they traded a slew of picks for the right to snag him, Jones was whisked into the NFL only to sit idle while the league and the players association worked out a new collective bargaining agreement. That affected him on plenty of [...]

    The tale of Peria Jerry’s NFL career has been a tumultuous one to this point. Held out his rookie season with a knee injury that took years to heal, even Jerry has mentioned that he’s turned a corner in 2012, feeling as healthy as he ever has.

    Dominique Davis’ brother once told him that he can’t focus on other people’s success. He has to instead focus on his own first. That’s the mentality he’s taken into a quarterback battle that has quickly and interestingly heated up in the first two preseason games, and it seems to be paying off for the undrafted [...]

    The big lights of the NFL can be blinding, especially for an undrafted rookie. So when he had the chance to make a play last week and instead had a pass go off his fingertips and into the hands of a defender for an interception, rookie TE LaMark Brown knew that he had to find [...]

    When did you ever think running back Michael Turner would have more yards receiving than rushing? Well, it’s happened. Turner got involved in the passing game quite a bit — well, at least by his standards — during Thursday’s preseason game against the Bengals at the Georgia Dome.
