Atlanta Falcons LBs Sean Weatherspoon (knee) and Stephen Nicholas (hernia) are both expected to be ready for the team’s mandatory minicamp that takes place next week. ‘I’m fairly confident that when we start our mandatory minicamp that both of those guys will be out there,’ Smith said. ‘They have done probably more workload over on the side with the trainers than what they would put in during a particular practice. We think they’re real close. We want to make sure that they get another couple of days with the trainers before we bring them out.’
