    FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Atlanta Falcons receiver Harry Douglas is out for the season after suffering a knee injury.


    Injury Throws Off Falcons' Plans
    The news that wide receiver Harry Douglas is out for the season is devastating for the Falcons, writes Pat Yasinskas. The injury, combined with Roddy White's continuing holdout, leaves Atlanta thin at wide receiver. Blog



    Coach Mike Smith says Thursday that Douglas suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee in a drill on Wednesday and will miss the season.

    The loss of Douglas leaves the Falcons short-handed at the position while 2008 Pro Bowl receiver Roddy White is holding out for a new contract. Douglas was filling in for White with the first-team offense in training camp

    If I were the falcons i'd take advantage of the opportunity to evaluate Douglas' replacements before I decide to abandon my position on paying for White.

    speaking of which, NFLN interview the other day...

    he leads all TE's in pretty much every stat, but he's never won a playoff game in 13 seasons...

    also, he said the reason he came to Atlanta was he liked their chances to win a Super Bowl
