When the Atlanta Falcons take on the Green Bay Packers at home this Sunday, they could have two starters back on the field with them.
Okudah, who had been recovering from an ankle injury and missed Week 1's win over the Carolina Panthers, returned to practice on Wednesday.
Starting running back Cordarrelle Patterson also returned to practice after missing Sunday's game with a thigh injury.
Below is Wednesday's full injury report:

LB Troy Anderson | Concussion | DNP |
DE Calais Campbell | Rest | DNP |
TE Jonnu Smith | Rest | DNP |
CB Jeff Okudah | Foot | LP |

Injury report observations:
- Linebacker Troy Anderson is in concussion protocol and must be cleared in order to return to practice.
- HC Arthur Smith said during Monday's presser that Okudah was "trending in the right direction", which was proven today, though he was limited.
- Smith and Campbell don't have injuries and should return to practice tomorrow.
- Patterson is back in full after being limited all last week.
- And the Falcons will wear their red throwback helmets this week.
