The Atlanta Falcons are likely to pursue Steven Jackson if he leaves the St. Louis Rams, according to a St. Louis Post-Dispatch report.

The Falcons are expected to release Michael Turner, and will need help at running back.

Jackson, 29, rushed for 1,042 yards last season, and averaged 4.1 per carry.
