Falcons preparing to start Tevin Coleman

The Atlanta Falcons are preparing to start rookie running back Tevin Coleman at tailback in Week 12 against the Vikings.

What It Means:

Devonta Freeman went down with a concussion last week, and doesn't look on track to be back by Sunday.

Coleman has struggled running the ball so far. His -0.07 Rushing Net Expected Points per carry rank 41st among the 59 backs with 40-plus carries on the season, though he'll have a relatively favorable matchup on Sunday. The Vikings rank 18th in the league with a schedule-adjusted 0.00 Defensive Rushing NEP.
