Goodson has been a monster throughout preseason; in the Colts game, he delivered decisive runs on the opening drive, a 37-yard kick return in the first quarter, and capped it with a 49-yard touchdown run with strong blocking from Mike Jerrell and company. The source believes his ability to do everything well and run effectively in preseason should secure him the RB3 job, and expresses confidence in the running back depth chart if he lands that role.

In the competitive third running back depth chart battle against Nathan Carter and Trey Sermon, Goodson was the best runner for the Falcons and the only player with at least one carry to average above 3.0 yards per attempt, posting 4.0 YPA—a full yard more than the next best Falcon. Had the game-long rush of 8 yards and demonstrated superior vision and leg drive; in a third-quarter sequence at Denver's 5-yard line, Carter was stuffed for a 1-yard loss while Goodson kept his legs churning to convert what looked like a minimal gain into an impressive 5-yard run to the 1-yard line, setting up Strand's sneak touchdown.

Former Georgia High School player of the year from North Gwinnett won the third running back depth chart competition battle in preseason Week 1 against incumbent Nathan Carter and new addition Trey Sermon. Goodson was the best runner of the night for the Falcons, averaging 4.0 yards per attempt—a full yard more than the next best Falcon—and was the only player out of eight to take at least one carry to generate a yards per attempt mark higher than 3.0. Had the game-long rush of 8 yards for Atlanta. In a critical third-quarter sequence at Denver's 5-yard line, Carter was stuffed for a 1-yard loss while Goodson kept his legs churning to convert a seemingly minimal gain into an impressive 5-yard run to the 1-yard line, setting up Strand's sneak touchdown. The former Indianapolis Colt looked spry and demonstrated superior vision and effort compared to Carter (6 carries, 8 yards).
