Falcons rookie wide receiver Calvin Ridley left Saturday’s practice early because of a hamstring issue
Josh Malone Jersey , but coach Dan Quinn said all indications were that it was a “minor precaution” rather than a major concern.
That initial read looks like it was an accurate one. Per multiple reports from Falcons camp, Quinn said that Ridley will be back on the practice field Sunday.
Ridley was the 25th overall pick of this year’s draft and is expected to join Julio Jones and Mohamaed Sanu as targets for Matt Ryan at wide receiver this year.
Defensive end Takk McKinley, who was Atlanta’s first-round pick in 2017, also left Saturday’s practice with an right arm injury. McKinley

During the Scouting Combine earlier this year, Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said that “two most important abilities [for a player] in all this is availability and accountability” while noting that running back Ty Montgomery‘s biggest stumbling block has been availability.
Montgomery missed 10 games and the playoffs with an ankle injury in 2015 and missed eight games with rib and wrist injuries last year, which illustrates the point McCarthy was making. It’s something that Montgomery knows needs to change if he’s going to realize his full potential as an NFL player.
“I know that I can be a really good football player; I just need to stay healthy

Montgomery has been in Green Bay working with the Packers training staff this offseason and McCarthy said you can expect a “bigger, stronger” player than in past seasons. McCarthy has also committed to Montgomery as a running back

If, of course, he’s healthy enough to take advantage of those multi-positional skills.
