Falcons seem cautiously optimistic that CB A.J. Terrell will return this week

A.J. Terrell last played in Week 7 against the Bengals. He missed most of that game after suffering (or, perhaps, aggravating) a hamstring injury and has been working his way back since. In the interim, a Falcons secondary also missing Casey Hayward has predictably struggled quite a bit, even with stretches of strong play from Darren Hall at times.

We’ve been waiting to see when Terrell might return, and in his Monday press conference, Arthur Smith sounded an optimistic note for this upcoming game against the Bears.

Something that went overlooked in today's presser with Arthur Smith: Said AJ Terrell would "hopefully" be back to practice this week, but would know more on Wednesday.
