GRAYSON — Falcons coach Dan Quinn likes what he has seen from C.J. Goodwin, a former receiver turned cornerback. With Desmond Trufant held out of Friday night’s practice at Grayson High School because of a hip injury, Goodwin manned the starting job at left cornerback. It’s been a considerable climb up the depth chart for Goodwin, who spent 2014 as a receiver on Pittsburgh’s practice squad and joined Atlanta’s practice squad last November.
