Will starters play? What position battles are still up for grabs? Here's what -- and how -- to watch in the Atlanta Falcons' preseason finale against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Atlanta and Jacksonville have experienced different results during the exhibition slate and will take separate approaches in Friday night's affair.
Regardless, Friday night will feature 60 minutes of important evaluation periods for each team. Here's what to know ...After a pair of locally telecasted games to start the preseason, the Falcons make their national TV debut Friday. NFL Network will carry the game via FOX 5, with Justin Kutcher handling play-by-play duties, DJ Shockley and Coy Wire serving as color commentators and Jen Hale working the sidelines.
The battle to fill Atlanta's No. 3 and 4 running back spots is particularly prominent, with special teams ace Avery Williams, second-year pro and returning practice squad rusher Carlos Washington Jr., sixth-round rookie Jase McClellan and late camp signee Spencer Brown fighting for the final two spots.
Atlanta also has questions at receiver, where Chris Blair, Casey Washington, Josh Ali, undrafted rookie OJ Hiliare and a pair of second-year undrafted players Dylan Drummond and Jesse Matthews are competing for the No. 5 and 6 spots in the room.
