Falcons GM: No Interest in Tevin Coleman Trade, Could Give RB Contract Extension

Atlanta Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff said the team is not interested in trading running back Tevin Coleman during an interview Monday on 92.9 The Game, per Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com. According to McClure, Dimitroff said previously "he could see a scenario of paying Coleman after already paying Devonta Freeman."

Freeman signed a five-year, $41 million extension with the Falcons last season, calling into question if the team would be willing to commit even more to the running back position to keep Coleman for the long term.
