Atlanta Falcons rookie running back Tevin Coleman will make his preseason debut Saturday. For Coleman, it's a moment he's been looking forward to for years. For Falcons fans, it's as chance to see the last piece of our new and improved running game in action.
There's no denying the talent in the Falcons' running back stable right now. Antone Smith is a perennial home run threat and Devonta Freeman can consistently play all three downs. But Coleman has a certain style about him, a certain swagger, and I'm not just referring to how he runs. From the moment the Falcons drafted him, Coleman made one thing very clear: he wants to start.
