Atlanta Falcons first-round pick Jalon Walker has missed the last several days of training camp with a previously undisclosed injury.

Morris characterized it as "nothing long term" and the plan was to have Walker, the former UGA star taken 15th overall by the Falcons in the most recent draft, back in practice at some point today and going full speed independently as the team exercises caution with him.

The Falcons are counting on Walker and fellow first-rounder James Pearce to juice up their pass rush, so they'll likely take as much time as needed to be sure Walker is fully healed before giving him the practice return he's pushing for this week.
