2024 Fantasy Outlook
Hughes operated primarily as a slot CB last year but appears to have the inside edge at claiming the CB2 role opposite A.J. Terrell in 2024. Hughes also has experience as a return man but likely wouldn't get too many chances to showcase that skill if he's a regular starter on defense. Read Past Outlooks

Past neck issue
Hughes (neck) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Hughes missed the Falcons' last two games due to a neck injury sustained in a Week 10 loss to the Saints, but Wednesday's full practice session suggests that he's since recovered. With Hughes back at full health, he's expected to start opposite A.J. Terrell as part of Atlanta's top outside cornerback duo in Week 14, when the Falcons travel to Minnesota.

Hughes signed a two-year deal with the Falcons this offseason after appearing in 16 games, including a career-high six starts, with Detroit in 2022. He's slated to compete for a depth role but will also take over primary punt-return duties with Avery Williams out for the season. The 2018 first-round pick has played for three different teams in five seasons, and while he's struggled with consistency, he's shown flashes of being an elite playmaker.
