With both Freeman and Coleman healthy there is little need for Ward to be active on Saturday however if both backs go down the Falcons could be in trouble.

With Tevin Coleman being inactive, the Falcons will use Terron Ward for the first time this season as a back-up during Week 8. Devonta Freeman will get the huge bulk of the carries and should be an easy cash game lineup lock for all the daily fantasy users out there.

Ward makes the second running back added to the mix in Atlanta on Tuesday, following the addition of Stevan Ridley as well. Tevin Coleman is likely out for Week 8 with a hamstring injury suffered in Week 7 and Atlanta is simply trying to add depth behind Devonta Freeman in the meantime.
