Ready for NFL debut Terrell (hamstring) will play in Sunday's game versus the Seahawks, Will McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Terrell was limited in practice Thursday and Friday, but there's no concern about his availability for Sunday's matchup. The rookie first-rounder draws a difficult NFL debut with Russell Wilson under center for Seattle, as Terrell will be responsible for covering either Tyler Lockett or DK Metcalf.

Logs limited practice Terrell was limited in Thursday's practice due to a hamstring injury, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Terrell wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, so he may have sustained his hamstring injury during Thursday's session. The rookie first-round pick looks primed to start against Seattle on Sunday, if healthy, so his participation in Friday's practice will be worth monitoring.

Quieting skeptics in camp Terrell is "looking and playing like a No. 1 corner" in training camp, Matthew Tabeek of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Results certainly have potential to change once the bright lights come on Week 1, but Terrell is so far bringing a newfound confidence to the Falcons' cornerback group. He did struggle mightily in coverage against Ja'Marr Chase during Clemson's national title loss to LSU in January, but otherwise Terrell helped lead the Tigers to a 29-1 record across two years as a starter, while establishing himself as one of the premier defensive backs in the nation. Terrell must, of course, prove his abilities during the regular season for Atlanta's first-round investment to become a profitable one, but it is at least encouraging that he is holding his own against receivers of Julio Jones' and Calvin Ridley's caliber in practice.

Inks rookie contract Terrell signed his four-year, $14.31 million rookie contract with the Falcons on Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact The first-round draft choice became the final member of Atlanta's 2020 draft class to sign, joining five fellow Falcons rookies by inking a deal that includes $7.96 million in signing bonus cash. Terrell is expected to immediately compete for a starting role alongside cornerbacks Isaiah Oliver and Kendall Sheffield, providing Atlanta with one of the more youthful secondaries in all the NFL. An abbreviated training camp certainly will not help Terrell acclimate in the early going, but he and the rest of Atlanta's defense is benefited by the fact that there isn't an inter-divisional matchup against Drew Brees or Tom Brady until Week 11.
