Cordarrelle Patterson Could Be Used In Traditional Role
4 years agoAtlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson, who will be a major part of special teams while also being used as a gadget guy on offense, could be used in more of a traditional running back role behind lead back Mike Davis. The only thing we really know is that Davis is expected to be the primary ball-carrier, but this will be the first time he's actually entered a season with that role. The coaches have been impressed with what they've seen from Qadree Ollison this offseason, so Patterson will have to earn a role in this backfield in his first year in Atlanta. He's unlikely to see enough weekly touches to be relevant in most leagues, but perhaps the Falcons line him up at receiver after they traded away All-Pro Julio Jones.
