Pretty basic story here. Reading up on the Falcons injury report, which ye can find here, you'll see that Ashley Lelie is out with a shoulder injury. The trade that brought Lelie to the Falcons was a dumb one for two out of three teams involved; the Broncos looked like the least likely to benefit, but their draft choices are worth more than a completely mediocre season from Lelie and a pitiful one from TJ Duckett. That season--and perhaps his days with the Falcons--is/are over, and it's time to get a good look at Adam Jennings, who will be the slot receiver on Sunday. I like his skill set quite a bit, and although he's raw he should get a chance to help the team out. One hopes a big game from him coincides with a win for the team, eh?
