Falcons' Julio Jones: Will play Thursday

Jones (knee) does not appear on the Falcons' final injury report of the week, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis:

Jones was noticeably hindered by some ailment during his meager three-catch, 29-yard performance Sunday versus the Packers. Limited with a knee designation both Monday and Tuesday, he was listed as a full participant Wednesday and will thus be available against the Buccaneers in Week 9. In Atlanta's regular season opener versus the same squad, Jones reeled in four of eight passes for 66 yards and one touchdown despite injuring his left ankle at some point during the contest. On this occasion, he'll attempt to one-up himself against a Tampa Bay defense that has conceded 13.8 YPC and 11 touchdowns to wideouts through seven games.
