Last season, the Falcons’ Tevin Coleman led all running backs with 2.54 yards per route run and averaged 13.3 routes run per game, according to profootballfocus.com.

Through four games this year, Coleman averaged the same 13.3 routes run per game and increased his efficiency to 3.00 yards per route run.

In the past two games, however, Coleman has run just 16 total routes, and seen only two targets for four yards.
