The Atlanta Falcons' list of injured running backs leaves Jason Snelling in position to possibly make his first start of the season against the New York Giants.
Michael Turner is in a walking boot after suffering a sprained
right ankle in last week's loss at Carolina. Atlanta's top backup,
Jerious Norwood, has missed four straight games with a hip flexor injury. Norwood says he may not know his status until late in the week.
Snelling, a third-year player from Virginia, has filled in at
running back and fullback. He had career-high totals with 18
carries for 61 yards with his first touchdown of the season last
week.
