No, Devonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman aren’t in any danger of losing their spots atop the depth chart, but there are a couple of players battling to become the third back on the roster. It remains to be seen how newly signed running backs Kelvin Taylor and Jhurell Pressley will factor into the mix, but Terron Ward and rookie Brian Hill appear to be the top contenders.
Ward led all Atlanta players with 48 yards in the team’s first preseason game against the Dolphins, and he also scored the only rushing touchdown.
