Falcons quarterback Byron Leftwich practiced for the first time Wednesday since undergoing surgery to help recuperate from a high ankle sprain.

Leftwich suffered the injury in the second half of a game against New Orleans on Oct. 21. Leftwich had surgery to place screws in his ankle ligaments three days later.

The following is caption under Harrington's pic on the front of the sports page.

Falcons QB Joey Harrington has led the team to two straight wins but he won't be the starter once Byron Leftwich is healthy, coach Bobby Petrino said. Harrington isn't happy about thw news and also isn't pleased to have found out through the media.

It won't matter - Leftwich won't last cause something else will twist, fracture, or break. He's an injury waiting to happen.
