Injury roundup: Julio Jones (turf toe) misses practice

Signs are looking promising for Julio Jones to help the Atlanta Falcons fend off the Tampa Buccaneers for the NFC South title.

The wideout missed Wednesday's session, but he could practice on Thursday, coach Dan Quinn told reporters. Jones is battling a case of turf toe after suffering the injury in the final moments of Sunday's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

The 7-5 Falcons play the struggling Los Angeles Rams on Sunday.

Here's a look at other injuries we are tracking Wednesday:

1. Eagles running back Ryan Mathews (knee) practiced as a full participant. This is a good sign for him playing this week vs. the Redskins, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported.

2. Vikings safety Harrison Smith will miss Sunday's game vs. the Jaguars with a high ankle sprain and could be out for the remainder of the regular season.

3. Rams quarterback Jared Goff missed practice Wednesday due to an illness, head coach Jeff Fisher said. The rookie participated in meetings, and the missed practiced will not set Goff back for Sunday, Fisher added.
