The Falcons’ fullback position has been in a flux several times over the last couple of years, especially after the departure of Patrick DiMarco. So while flux lies ahead again in 2019, it’s sort of nice to know who will be competing for the fullback job this early in the year, and even who will likely win the job.
That’s because the job here in the early going is between an incumbent who was an afterthought in last year’s offense with a different offensive coordinator, and a fresh import who has experience in a Dirk Koetter offense and can play tight end and fullback, even though it’s not his primary role.
