After Cordarrelle Patterson rushed for 108 yards and two touchdowns against the Jaguars, it’s pretty safe to move him ahead of Mike Davis and declare him the RB1.
The team’s official depth chart was released on Tuesday with Davis still as the RB1.
The Falcons also activated offensive guard Josh Andrews and released cornerback Chris Williamson.
Punter Dustin Colquitt remains on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
