Falcons' White limited in practice Thursday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Roddy White @roddywhiteTV (knee) was limited in practice on Thursday. The injury report states that White likely suffered a bone bruise during their game against Tampa Bay on November 7. He has played through the injury but Atlanta has rested him more during the week to ensure he's able to play on Sundays. His availability for their game against the Green Bay Packers appears to be unquestioned. White needs one more catch in order to become only the 12th wide receiver in NFL history with at least 80 receptions and 1,000 receiving yards in four consecutive seasons. Atlanta will play host to Green Bay on Sunday and both teams currently have four game win streaks.

Fantasy Analysis:

White has been unstoppable almost every week this season. He's a top 3 fantasy WR week-in and week-out. There's little question he plays but it's important to remember that he needs rest and still not playing at 100 percent which is saying a lot about his talents. White has fully established himself as a dominant fantasy receiver and there's no reason to bench him any week of the season. He leads the league in catches and is second in receiving yards. He's been injured for three weeks now and in that time he's had 25 receptions for 270 yards and two scores. Considering he's averaging about 12 targets per week, even against a tough Green Bay matchup, you once again must start him.
