Defensive end John Abraham and cornerback Dunta Robinson were both on the practice field when the Atlanta Falcons continued preparations for their upcoming playoff showdown with the Seattle Seahawks on Wednesday.

Both players left Atlanta's regular-season finale against Tampa Bay on Dec. 30 due to injury, with Abraham spraining his left ankle and Robinson sustaining a concussion.

Robinson has since been cleared after going through the league's concussion protocol and was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Abraham was listed as limited.

Safety William Moore, who sat out the NFC South champion's final four tests of the regular season with a hamstring injury, was also limited on Wednesday.

Cornerback Chris Owens (hamstring) and reserve safety Charles Mitchell (calf) were the only Atlanta players not to take part in Wednesday's session.
