B. J. Hill Jersey . -- The Atlanta Falcons still expect Kemal Ishmael will open the season as the fill-in starter at strong safety even though hell miss his third straight preseason game this week.Coach Dan Quinn said Tuesday Ishmael wont play in Thursday nights final preseason game against Jacksonville. Ishmael, returning from a shoulder sprain, practiced on Monday and Tuesday but wont be able to replace injured rookie starter Keanu Neal this week as had been hoped.Neal is expected to miss at least the first two regular-season games after having arthroscopic surgery on his right knee on Monday.Quinn said Ishmael should have no limitations next week.He practiced the last two days and hes just not quite ready with the time off that hes missed, Quinn said, adding Ishmael would have played this week if it was a regular game.Newly signed veteran safety Deshon Goldson will play against the Jaguars after quickly learning the defense.He did a good job this week in terms of learning and applying it, Quinn said. We wont overload him but we definitely want to give him some work.Quinn stressed on Sunday that Goldson, a 2012 All-Pro selection with the 49ers who started 15 games with the Redskins last season, was signed to play behind Neal and Ishmael.Ishmael said Tuesday he was ready to play when needed.Im feeling good, feeling real comfortable out there on the defense, Ishmael said.Ishmael, entering his fourth season with the Falcons, is preparing for a familiar backup role -- assuming Neal makes a full recovery from his knee injury.Ishmael made five starts in 2015 and a combined 15 in 36 games the last three years.Its all about selflessness, Ishmael said of his role. Its bigger than me. Its a team thing. ...Whatever role they want me to fill, thats what Im going to do and Im going to be happy with it.Wide receiver Julio Jones (ankle), defensive end Adrian Clayborn (shoulder) and running back Brandon Wilds (knee) also wont play this week. Quinn said rookie wide receiver Devin Fuller (shoulder) will be placed on injured reserve.Kicker Matt Bryant will return after missing two games with muscle tightness in his leg. Running back Terron Ward will return from an ankle sprain to play behind Devonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman.Quinn said the final preseason game will be a really fun night for the guys as players compete for the final roster and practice-squad spots.Such starters as quarterback Matt Ryan should have extremely limited time as the focus is on younger players.Thats why its a fun night for us coaches to see the competitiveness, Quinn said. You get a chance to see who wants to go for it in the very biggest way. Its another opportunity to shine and do that.Game notes Quinn said he talked in a team meeting about the 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernicks decision to sit for the national anthem before a preseason game. Quinn said he wanted to make sure players consult teammates before taking any similar action to make sure everything is about the team, especially when were at a ballgame as a team.---AP NFL website:

Jeff Teague led the Hawks (1-5) with 17 points and eight assists and Al Horford had 12 points and seven rebounds. Mike Scott scored 15 of his 17 points in the second half. BOSTON -- Given how the Boston Red Sox bullpen has labored for the past month, getting injured setup man Koji Uehara back by Labor Day would be a welcome development.It just might happen, too.Uehara threw an encouraging 25-pitch session of live batting practice Monday at Fenway Park, his most rigorous workout yet since he went on the disabled list July 19 with a strained right pectoral muscle.According to Red Sox manager John Farrell, Uehara is scheduled for a bullpen session Wednesday in Boston and will throw to hitters again Saturday, one day later than he otherwise would have because the field at Oakland Coliseum wont be available after a Raiders preseason game Thursday night.If all goes well, Uehara could be reinstated to the roster as soon as next Monday for the opener of a three-game interleague series in San Diego.The Red Sox can use Uehara, too. Since he was sidelined, they have lacked a primary eighth-inning setup man. Although submarining right-hander Brad Ziegler hasnt pitched poorly, Farrell prefers not to use him against left-handed hitters. Junichi Tazawa and Matt Barnes have struggled, and lefty Fernando Abad has been a disappointment since being acquired from the Minnesota Twins at the trade deadline.So, although Uehara is 41 years old and has allowed eight home runs in his past 20? innings, he figures to help stabilize a group of relievers that has been searchingg for more definition to their roles.
Kyle Lauletta Jersey. healthy Koji certainly adds to our bullpen. And I know that he senses that, Farrell said. But I cant say that hes short-cutting any work or rehab for the sake of just getting back.Regardless of the struggles of the Red Soxs bullpen, Uehara made clear Monday night that he doesnt intend to come back before hes ready.It makes no sense to rush at this point in time, so Ill try to be ready when Im ready, Uehara said through a translator. I think the biggest hurdle is getting over the hurdle mentally. I think Im pretty good where I am physically.Indeed, when Uehara got injured, the Red Sox werent sure he would pitch again this season. Pectoral injuries are less common in pitchers than shoulder issues. Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski recently noted that Detroit Tigers right-hander Anibal Sanchez missed the final month and a half of last season with a pectoral strain.Its been impressive to see how [Uehara] has handled the volume with three times on the mound and the intensity to his bullpens and the BP, Farrell said. To his credit, hes worked his tail off. Hes gone about this fairly rapidly.Uehara has appeared in 39 games this season and has a 4.50 ERA with 51 strikeouts in 36 innings.
