The Falcons had a crowded backfield last year and Devonta Freeman dominated the carries and targets out of the backfield. With Freeman now gone, there will be a lot of opportunity for the backs who remain on the roster, especially if Atlanta (surprisingly) doesn’t draft someone.
Brian Hill is probably the most logical choice to be that guy, and no matter what he figures to get some kind of opportunity in this offense in 2020 now that he’s back. Oh, yeah, Brian Hill’s back.
The Falcons placed an original round tender on Brian Hill, a restricted free agent.
