Michael Turner's high ankle sprain won't keep him out of Sunday's do-or-die contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The running back is active, and the team is well-stocked in reserve in case he aggravates the injury over the course of the afternoon. Jerious Norwood makes his return to the lineup after missing five games with a hip injury. Those two will be joined by Jason Snelling as the Falcons attempt to attack a Buccaneers defense that lost its coordinator Jim Bates this week. (ProFootballTalk)

Falcons running back Michael Turner has been receiving continued treatment for his right high ankle sprain, but he remains uncertain how close he is to returning to action. The team's leading rusher, Turner didn't play against the New York Giants on Sunday, nor did he test the injury, suffered against Carolina on Nov. 15, by running on the field before the game. Jason Snelling, who filled in for Turner, is likely to do so again Sunday against Tampa Bay. But Turner doesn't want to rule himself out yet. "It's an ankle sprain," Turner said. "These injuries are kind of like funny. Some guys take six weeks to bounce back, but I don't think I'll take that long. I'm just trying to get back to my normal self again."

"Well, if he continues to run the ball like that, yes," Smith said. "He ran the ball very effectively. He's a guy who has come in and played fullback for us and the tailback position as well and Jason, every time he has gotten an opportunity, he has played very efficiently. He could warrant more touches." (AP)
