Falcons rookie CB A.J. Terrell — who was limited yesterday — is out there as well, but wearing a compression sleeve on his leg.

Terrell has a minor hamstring injury but looks good to go for this weekend’s opener against the Seattle Seahawks. Meanwhile, second-year CB Kendall Sheffield‘s status for Sunday is uncertain, as team reporter William McFadden reports below.

Dan Quinn says Kendall Sheffield's foot bothered him throughout training camp and that a decision would be made regarding his status for Week 1 with the injury report after practice.

Bucs-Falcons Final Injury Report: Jason Pierre-Paul is a go for Sunday

See the final injury report for both the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Atlanta Falcons ahead of Sunday’s Week 12 showdown.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are looking to get back on the winning track this week as they take on the suddenly streaking Atlanta Falcons, who have won their past two games by outscoring their opponents 55-12.

The Bucs’ offense looked out of sync in Week 11’s loss to the New Orleans Saints, so getting Jameis Winston comfortable early on will be key for offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich.

On the defensive side of the ball, Tampa Bay will have star pass rusher Jason Pierre-Paul back for Sunday’s action. JPP had been dealing with a knee issue early in the week, but was a full participant at Friday’s practice.

Two Bucs have been ruled out for Sunday’s game, OLB Anthony Nelson and DB M.J. Stewart. OLB Carl Nassib has been listed as questionable for Sunday’s game, but Bruce Arians expects him to be back on the field.

Here is the final injury report for both teams.

Bucs-Falcons Injury Report (Nov. 21): Jason Pierre-Paul limited participant

Check out the latest injury report for both the Buccaneers and Falcons ahead of Week 12’s matchup in Atlanta.

The Buccaneers defense will be tasked with trying to stop Matt Ryan and Julio Jones this Sunday when they take on the Atlanta Falcons on the road.

Star pass rusher Jason Pierre-Paul missed practice yesterday for the Bucs while dealing with a knee injury. He was a limited participant today, which is an encouraging sign, considering he’s a key cog in this defense. Given that Pierre-Paul overcame a fractured neck to play this season, a knee issue shouldn’t be a problem for him.

Jameis Winston, who’s been dealing with an ankle issue suffered in Sunday’s loss to the Saints, was a full participant again today, so all signs point to him starting against Atlanta. (Sorry all you Ryan Griffin fans.)

Here is today’s injury report for both the Bucs and the Falcons.
