Falcons' Tevin Coleman: Struggles in second preseason game

Coleman gained 16 yards on five carries in Thursday's preseason game against the Browns.

Analysis:

Devonta Freeman got the start and posted a 4-42-1 rushing line, but Coleman also mixed in with the first-team offense, albeit to lesser effect. Although Freeman figures to serve as the lead back in a role that also includes passing-down snaps, Coleman could eat into his teammate's carries as the Falcons look to reduce Freeman's workload from last season. At the very least, Coleman should be one of the league's higher-end handcuffs.
