News and Notes
Nov 20 Norwood practiced Friday for the second straight day after missing Atlanta's last four games with a hip flexor.

Advice: The Falcons (5-4) hope Norwood, who is listed as questionable for Sunday, can help stabilize his position when they visit the New York Giants (5-4). Pro Bowl running back Michael Turner is sidelined with a high ankle sprain and not expected to play. He did not practice this week and is listed as doubtful. Though Norwood is unlikely to start, the four-year veteran has spent most of his career as a backup to Turner and the retired Warrick Dunn.

Nov 19 Norwood (hip) was a limited practice participant Thursday, the Falcons' official site reports.

Recommendation: More on Norwood's status Friday, but Thursday's participation is a positive step for him after missing four straight games. Meanwhile, Michael Turner did not practice Thursday, which leaves Jason Snelling and Aaron Stecker as the Falcons' healthiest running back options heading into the weekend.
