Jones (knee) remained limited in practice Thursday, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports. "The knee is great...I don't think it's anything where I'm going to miss time," Jones told Michael Cunningham of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Analysis:

Attendance at practice isn't required to know what Jones can achieve on the field from week to week, but he's so far provided confidence in his Week 14 availability with back-to-back limited showings. A road matchup with the Panthers' Josh Norman awaits Sunday, when Jones' considerable volume (an NFL-high 158 targets in 12 games) should help him maintain viability.
