Fantasy Impact:

Austin Hooper has missed the Falcons last three contests. There was some hope he would be able to return in Week 13, but it did not make sense to push him back with the short week. Holding him out gave him an extra 10 days to recover for Sunday's contest. Hooper will be an immediate TE1 upon his return. With the fantasy football semi finals upon us, this will be a situation to closely monitor throughout the week.
