Tevin Coleman coughs up another costly fumble in loss

Tevin Coleman got the start in place of the injured Devonta Freeman and ran well carrying the ball 18 times for 110 yards, but coughed up a costly fumble on a long run in the first quarter. The fumble is already his third lost on the season in his limited action. Coleman also dropped a costly downfield pass that would have helped the sputtering offense in the second half. The rookie ran well with 6.1 yards per carry, but the mistakes put a blemish on his afternoon.

Fantasy Impact:

This has to be frustrating for owners who can see the potential, but the rookie just can't hang on to the football. It's safe to say that Coleman didn't take advantage of the opportunity this week with Freeman out. Freeman will likely be ready to play next week returning from his concussion as the Falcons take on the Buccaneers. Coleman will unlikely be much of a factor in that contest.
