The Atlanta Falcons are without safety Erik Coleman and running back Beanie Wells is inactive for the Arizona Cardinals for Sunday's game.

Coleman, a starting strong safety, is out with a left knee injury he suffered in last week's loss at Pittsburgh but returned to finish the game. He was listed as questionable.

Second-year safety William Moore made his first start.

The Falcons are without receiver Michael Jenkins (shoulder) for the second straight week. Harry Douglas is making his second straight start.

Wells was held out with a bruised right knee. Tim Hightower is the starting running back.

Early Doucet is inactive with a sports hernia, as announced on Thursday, leaving rookie Stephen Williams as the Cardinals' No. 3 receiver.
