Tevin Coleman In Driver's Seat

5 years agoThe Athletic’s Matt Barrows expects San Francisco 49ers running back Tevin Coleman to head the charge in 2019. Having formerly worked with head coach Kyle Shanahan in Atlanta, Coleman’s incumbent role shouldn’t be a surprise after his signing this offseason. The dual-threat Coleman tallied 1,076 scrimmage yards and nine touchdowns in 199 touches last season but was a relative disappointment when handed the opportunity to be lead dog. In San Francisco, he’ll compete with Jerick McKinnon (knee) returning from a torn ACL and Matt Breida, amongst others for snaps. Based on his history and the personnel, it’s conceivable Coleman won’t work as a typical lead back as each player’s skillset is optimized. Considering the clogged playing situation, Niners running backs are fairly bunched in RotoBaller’s rankings at 29th (Coleman), 32nd (McKinnon) and 40th (Breida).--Andrew Le - RotoBaller
