Atlanta Falcons rookie linebacker Kendal Daniels has made a quick turnaround from a frightening injury. Daniels was carted off the field on a stretcher last week after his facemask collided with the knee of Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland. He went to a hospital and was cleared physically to return but had to overcome the mental hurdle of how he left the field last week. Daniels came through on Sunday with an interception, a fumble recovery and a team-high 11 tackles in Sunday's 29-20 win over the previously unbeaten San Francisco 49ers.
