Tevin Coleman

One of the ones that pops into my head immediately, and this is years, years ago, but when the Chargers, when they had LaDainian Tomlinson and Michael Turner, and I'm not comparing Brees Hall to LaDainian Tomlinson, but you always saw Michael Turner come in and you're like, hey, This dude's a starting NFL running back.

Then he got his opportunity in Atlanta, and he was a Pro Bowl running back for the Atlanta Falcons, who also had Tevin Coleman and Devonta Freeman in their backfield.

This is a really good tandem.

I think it could work well with the Jets.

You'll take Julio, who was always great, and just even get more out of him.

But my most impressed part of Shanahan was he could take a couple of running backs who I thought were okay, and Tevin Coleman and Devontae Freeman, and turn them into the best duo in the league.

Yes.

He could turn a rookie Austin Hooper into something.

He ran for three touchdowns in the preseason.

Or remember when you played fantasy football, do you remember the running back Tevin Coleman? Remember that name? Atlanta? Yeah, he played for Atlanta.

He did.

He floated around.

It's just where it's the upgrade.

It's going from these wide receivers that are good but not great, and then when Mike Evans comes into the fold, it's kind of like getting a Christian McCaffrey, where Kyle Shanahan had had success earlier, Back in the day with Matt Breida or Tevin Coleman or Raheem Mostert, and then you go out and get a Christian McCaffrey, and that's a game changer.

So when you have all these Hall of Famers, when you have all these guys, and you have the luxury of not having to use Christian McCaffrey the same way, the sky's the limit for this team.

No, it truly is.

[laughs] Matt Breida, who i- I mean, nobody had heard of him.

Uh, Tevin Coleman had 544.

Yeah.

So, and they all played pretty much every game, so it was just, just like what you were describing in Denver, is that, you know, they just plug and play.

And I'm not saying that Swift is LT, but just the backup running back.

When Tevin Coleman and Devonta Freeman were together in Atlanta, it's like,

hey,

if he can ever go be a guy somewhere, you'll get...
