Running Backs

Devonta Freeman

50 Targets, 41 catches, 380 receiving yards, 2 receiving Touchdowns

225 Attempts, 1,065 rushing yards, 10 rushing Touchdowns

Telvin Coleman

54 Targets, 46 catches, 650 receiving yards, 4 receiving Touchdowns

180 Attempts, 830 rushing yards, 8 rushing Touchdowns

Ito Smith

8 Targets, 3 catches, 36 receiving yards, 1 receiving Touchdown

20 Attempts, 70 rushing yards, 1 rushing Touchdown

Ricky Ortiz

7 Targets, 4 catches, 45 receiving yards, 1 receiving Touchdown

1 Attempt, 4 rushing yards, 1 rushing Touchdown

I think you will see an asserted effort to feature Coleman more as a receiving which will not only help Freeman stay healthy but will ensure he is fresher at the end of the year when it matters the most.
