FANTASY FOOTBALL INJURY ISSUES: TEVIN COLEMAN LIKELY TO BE OUT WEEK 5 WITH SICKLE CELL, DEVONTA FREEMAN LOOKING MORE POTENT BY THE DAY

Bringing back memories of former Pittsburgh Steelers safety Ryan Clark, Atlanta Falcons running back Tevin Coleman is unlikely to make the trip with the team week 5 to Denver to play the Broncos as he has the same sickle cell train. Coleman spoke out the issue early Monday morning and seemed to be leaning toward not going which means the resurgent Devonta Freeman will get bellcow work against the top defense in the game.  After a three-touchdown gem in Week 3 agianst the New Orleans Saints, Coleman was pretty quiet in the offensive explosion that the Falcons underwent in Week 4.  Meanwhile Freeman has put together two big games in a row after an ugly start to his season.  While the Denver defense is the best in the game, Freeman's workload will be big to try and soften up their front.  Coleman's expected DNP will not alter his overall RB 2 value.
