Star receivers Dez Bryant, Julio Jones active

The Dallas Cowboys and Atlanta Falcons will have top receivers Dez Bryant and Julio Jones, respectively, active for the NFC matchup.

Bryant (knee/ankle) and Jones (sore ankle) missed practices on Wednesday and Thursday before returning on Friday.

Jones was not included on Atlanta's final injury report, while Bryant was listed as questionable.

The Cowboys are without kicker Dan Bailey (right groin), leaving Mike Nugent as the starter, and starting left tackle Tyron Smith (back/groin). Falcons linebacker Duke Riley (knee) is out and kicker Matt Bryant (calf) is active.

Rams linebacker Robert Quinn is sitting out for the first time this season after missing the past week of practice with an unspecified illness. Matt Longacre will start against Houston in place of Quinn, who has 2ˆ½ sacks.

San Francisco left tackle Joe Staley is back two weeks after breaking his orbital bone. Staley got hurt in Philadelphia on Oct. 29 and was expected to miss at least two games, but is back early to give a needed boost the Niners struggling offensive line against the New York Giants.

Niners rookie defensive lineman Solomon Thomas is out with a knee injury after being listed as questionable.
