Barner collected 46 yards on four punt return attempts and 44 yards on two kick returns during Sunday's 28-12 loss to the Vikings.
Barner made a dent nearly every time he touched the ball on punt returns Sunday, picking up gains of 11, 12, five and 18 yards in his regular-season debut for the Falcons. He'll face a challenging special teams matchup in Week 2 going up against his former team on Sunday Night Football, with the Eagles allowing the sixth-fewest yards per punt return (6.3) last year.
