Falcons' Tevin Coleman ruled out for Bucs game

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Atlanta Falcons running back Tevin Coleman has been ruled out for Monday night's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers due to a concussion.

Coleman sustained the concussion during the Falcons' 20-17 win over the New Orleans Saints, Dec. 7. He did not receive full clearance despite the extra time between games. The third-year player from Indiana spent Friday running with the ball on a side field while continuing to go through the rehab process.

Coleman currently leads the Falcon with seven touchdowns.
