Falcons prepared for Tevin Coleman (hamstring) to miss significant time
The Atlanta Falcons are bracing for running back Tevin Coleman's hamstring injury to cost him time, head coach Dan Quinn indicated Monday.
Quinn called Coleman a "quick healer," but also noted he has dealt with hamstring injuries in the past. "We're discussing that big this afternoon," Quinn said. "Fortunately for us, (practice squad running back Terron) Ward is here, and he's somebody that's got game experience in the system and somebody that we can totally rely on." Expect Devonta Freeman to be an every-down workhorse in Week 8 against the Green Bay Packers' top-tier run defense.
Coleman earned 4.53 Net Expected Points on his eight carries before exiting with the injury, per numberFire Live.
