The Atlanta Falcons could lose Julio Jones for the season after the Pro Bowl receiver injured his foot Monday in a 3028 loss to the New York Jets. Coach Mike Smith says Jones, the NFL leader with 41 catches, did not get encouragin­g results from a visit with doctors Tuesday morning. Smith added that Jones will see a foot specialist Wednesday in Charlotte, N.C., for a second opinion. Jones ranks second with 580 yards receiving. The Falcons (1-4) lost four-time Pro Bowl receiver Roddy White to a hamstring injury during the game.
