Injury Report

Both teams come into the big game relatively healthy. Tom Brady is no longer on the injury report with a shoulder, praise the lord. But each and every player on the report is listed as questionable. All are expected to play.

For Atlanta, Julio Jones‘s presence on the report may scare a few fans in the dirty south, but if you think he’s missing this game with a toe you have another thing coming.

Falcons center Alex Mack is the one concern heading into Sunday. His fibula bang up has had him limited all week. Coaches and trainers are optimistic that he will suit up and play at a high level.

There are no significant injuries heading into the game of note.
