Falcons release Verron Haynes

The Atlanta Falcons have released running back Verron Haynes and added receiver Troy Bergeron to the active roster today.

Michael Turner, who will be a game-time decision with a high-ankle sprain, has been a limited participant in practice this week. Meanwhile Jerious Norwood, who is questionable for tomorrow's game, was a full participant at practice this week.

Perhaps by releasing Haynes, it indicates that Norwood and/or Turner will be able to play against the Buccaneers tomorrow. If they can't, running back Jason Snelling would see the majority of work.

Tampa Bay has allowed a league-worst 168.9 rushing yards per game so the Falcon running backs should have a big day tomorrow regardless of how the carries will be distributed.
