CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- Carolina running back DeAngelo Williams was in the starting lineup against Atlanta despite a sore left knee.

Will Svitek started for Baker, while the Falcons got better news about their receivers.
White was questionable with a sore knee, while Jenkins was added to the injury report Saturday with an illness.
