Atlanta Falcons running back Michael Turner was limited in practice this week and listed as questionable on the injury report, but he’s expected to play against the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Steve Wyche of NFL.com reports that a source with knowledge of the situation says Turner is expected to go, just two weeks after suffering a high ankle sprain.
A final decision won’t be made until after Turner tests his ankle in pregame warmups, but indications are that his ankle has healed sufficiently for him to play. Jason Snelling would start for the Falcons at running back if Turner can’t.
Turner, who started the Falcons’ first nine games before suffering the ankle injury, has 165 carries for 831 yards and 10 touchdowns this season.
