As the Falcons continued preparation for Sunday's Week 4 contest against the Houston Texans, RB Tevin Coleman (ribs) and TE Jacob Tamme (concussion) were held out of Thursday's practice.
WR Julio Jones (toe/hamstring) returned to practice in a limited capacity after sitting out on Wednesday. Ricardo Allen (knee), Devonta Freeman (toe), Devin Hester (toe) and Brooks Reed (groin) were also limited. Reed, who had surgery at the beginning of September, could make his season debut against Houston, according to head coach Dan Quinn.
