Despite having a plethora of weapons and one of the best offensive lines in the NFL, the Atlanta Falcons haven’t lived up to the hype on offense this season. The passing game has sputtered and the defense has been forced to carry the team most weeks.
The Falcons are set to face off against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday in what will likely be a low-scoring affair, but things haven’t always been this bad. Back in 2016, former Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones went off for a career-high 300 receiving yards during a 48-33 victory over the Panthers.
Watch highlights from Jones’ monster game against Carolina, as shared by the NFL’s Twitter account below.
