FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. — After being limited in Wednesday's practice with a hip injury, Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier was back as a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Allgeier contributed 53 of Atlanta's 151 rushing yards in their Monday Night Football win over the Philadelphia Eagles. He averaged 5.9 yards per carry on the night, serving as a reliable counterpart to Bijan Robinson on the ground.

Joining Allgeier as a full participant Thursday was defensive back Antonio Hamilton Sr., who has been recovering from a groin injury suffered during Week 1's preparation. Hamilton has not been active for either of the Falcons' first two games this season, and Thursday's practice marked his first as a full participant since early Week 1. Hamilton is listed on the team's official depth chart as Dee Alford's backup at nickel.

The only limited participant in Thursday's practice was defensive lineman James Smith-Williams. After playing in 55% of the defensive snaps Monday, Smith-Williams has been limited for the past two days with a hip injury.
