Running back signed by the Falcons in the past week.

NegativeRoleAug 11, 2026The Falcoholic

Signed by the Falcons to a one-year deal as a veteran running back option competing for the third back role behind Bijan and Brian Robinson. Career trajectory includes 2021 third-round selection by the 49ers, subsequent stints with the Eagles (one season), Colts (two years), and Steelers (most recent); accumulated 505 rushing yards and three touchdowns plus 22 receptions for 138 yards across his NFL career. The source notes his production has been underwhelming and he has struggled to find a home, but with no locked-in third back in Atlanta, he should get a fair shot. His physicality, speed, receiving ability, and blocking make him a fun reserve back option if he can secure the role, though he faces competition from Nate Carter, Cash Jones, and Tyler Goodson.

The source acknowledges that while his production has been underwhelming and he's struggled to find a home in his NFL career, he has the skill set to succeed in a reserve role if given the opportunity.
