Falcons coach Mike Smith said that PR/WR Harry Douglas (ACL tear) is getting close to getting back out on the field.
Douglas still has a long way to go on his rehab as he tore the ACL in August. We doubt he'll be 100 percent by the time training camp rolls around.
Falcons worked out CFL kickers Damon Duval, Sandro DeAngelis, and Justin Medlock on Tuesday.
Duval has turned down NFL opportunities in the past, but the Falcons are reportedly set to make him a contract offer. They have holdovers Matt Bryant and Steve Hauschka in the mix as well.

Atlanta Journal-Constitution columnist Jeff Schultz says that RE John Abraham was invisible at times last season and the Falcons need to do something to create more pressure.
After posting 16.5 sacks in 2008, Abraham had just 5.5 last season. At 31, there may be some concern that Abraham is declining, but adding a premier pass rusher opposite him would give him a major jolt. ESPN's Adam Schefter has already said that Atlanta would be a logical spot for impending unrestricted free agent Julius Peppers to land.
Falcons hired former Seahawks DBs coach Tim Lewis for the same position in Atlanta.
He replaces Emmitt Thomas, who was let go after the Falcons ranked a disappointing 28th against the pass in 2009. Lewis has experience as s coordinator from 2000-2006 with the Steelers and the Giants.

Roddy White has been added to the NFC Pro Bowl squad as a replacement for Sidney Rice.
Rice was sore following Sunday's loss to the Saints. White recorded a career-high 11 touchdowns in 2009 while becoming the first receiver in franchise history with three straight seasons of 80+ receptions and 1,100 yards. He's been a Top-10 fantasy receiver in each of the past two seasons.

Tony Gonzalez confirmed Wednesday that he will return for a 14th season.
"Now that I've had a chance to get away from the game a little bit...I'm definitely going to be around for next year," he said. The 34-year-old needs just one reception to get to 1,000 for his career. After proving he could stay highly productive in a run-based offense, Gonzalez will be among our top-ten fantasy tight ends for 2010. He finished 2009 ranked No. 5 at the position.
Falcons coach Mike Smith named free safety Thomas DeCoud his defensive MVP for the 2009 season.
It was a split vote, with GM Thomas Dimitroff giving his award to star linebacker Curtis Lofton. A first-year starter, DeCoud excelled in run support while proving more than adequate in coverage. He's a defensive building block for the Falcons.
