Mile High Report on Jonah Coleman
From the article
Rookie running back Jonah Coleman was a big part of that and was productive with his touches. After the game, Head Coach Sean Payton vowed to get Coleman more touches moving forward...Coleman has performed well that regard in limited playing time. He is averaging 4.7 yards per carry on first downs. He's also more effective than J.K. Dobbins on second down rushes.
STACKED’s take
Coleman's 4.7 YPC on first downs and Payton's commitment to more touches position him as lead back vs. Chiefs.
Rookie running back Jonah Coleman was productive in limited playing time against Arizona and Head Coach Sean Payton vowed to get Coleman more touches moving forward. The source expects increased opportunity with RJ Harvey's status versus the Chiefs in doubt. Coleman has performed well on early downs, averaging 4.7 yards per carry on first downs and is more effective than J.K. Dobbins on second down rushes. The source views Week 8 as a big opportunity for Coleman to demonstrate he should lead the Broncos' rushing group moving forward, especially given Denver's need to establish a formidable rushing attack and improve third-down conversion by gaining quality yards on early downs.
