Falcons' Julio Jones: Sits out of practice Sunday

Jones (ankle) will not practice Sunday, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis:

Jones was hoping to be back to practice by Sunday, but instead, he'll get another day off for further rest and recovery. He recently stated his ankle was "doing great", which seems to indicate it's only minor and he'll be back on the field soon, although it wouldn't be surprising if the Falcons continue to stay cautious with their star receiver and keep him limited throughout the rest of the preseason. We should see his status updated again in the coming few days.
