Atlanta Falcons' Cordarrelle Patterson game-time call due to ankle

Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson will be a game-time decision Thursday night after suffering an ankle injury.

Patterson practiced on a limited basis Tuesday and would have been done so Monday as well had the Falcons had a workout.

"It's a short week. It's not like it's been any kind of Junction Boys style practice but he's participated," Falcons coach Arthur Smith said. "We'll make the best decision tomorrow, probably pre-game. We'll take that one all the way up."

The 30-year-old is in the midst of the best year of his career with Atlanta -- racking up 473 receiving yards and 303 rushing yards, already eclipsing the previous season-highs in his prior eight years.
