  • Cordarrelle Patterson Limited Thursday

    Headshot for Cordarrelle Patterson

    Atlanta Falcons running back/wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson (thigh) was listed as a limited participant in practice on Thursday. Patterson was also limited on Wednesday with an injury that has been bothering him since the preseason in August. As long as rookie Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier are healthy for Atlanta, Patterson is mostly going to be an afterthought in this offense. The 32-year-old veteran has yet to even make his season debut while he tries to get back to 100 percent health this fall. Even if Patterson is active and makes his 2023 debut this Sunday in London against the Jacksonville Jaguars, he should remain on the waiver wire in most fantasy leagues.

  • Cordarrelle Patterson Limited Wednesday

    Headshot for Cordarrelle Patterson

    Atlanta Falcons running back/wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson (thigh) got in a limited practice session on Wednesday. Patterson has yet to take the field in 2023 as he has been dealing with a thigh injury since the beginning of the season. The veteran could be back in the fold in Week 4, although his role in the offense remains to be seen after the Falcons drafted Bijan Robinson in the first round of this past NFL draft. Patterson is best left on waivers until there is more clarity on how exactly the Falcons intend to deploy him on offense in 2023.

  • Cordarrelle Patterson Listed As Questionable

    Headshot for Cordarrelle Patterson

    Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson (thigh) has been given a questionable designation for the Week 3 game on Sunday in Detroit against the Lions. Patterson popped up on the injury report on Thursday after not practicing, but he was able to put in a limited session on Friday to give him a chance to suit up this weekend. The 32-year-old didn't enter the Week 2 win over the Green Bay Packers with an injury designation but was still made inactive. Patterson has yet to play for the Falcons so far in 2023, and even if he does make his season debut in Detroit, he's going to have a small role behind RBs Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier. He is far from the fantasy radar right now heading into Week 3.

  • Cordarrelle Patterson Misses Thursday's Practice

    Headshot for Cordarrelle Patterson

    Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson (thigh) did not suit up for Thursday's practice session. The veteran back has not played a game this season and it seems unlikely that he'll play in Week 3. Patterson was scratched ahead of the Week 2 matchup versus the Green Bay Packers after being a full participant during practice all week. The Falcons don't seem very eager to get Patterson back on the field, so they'll probably ease him back into things. For now, Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier will handle a majority of the workload in the backfield.

  • Cordarrelle Patterson Will Be Available In Week 2

    Headshot for Cordarrelle Patterson

    Atlanta Falcons running back/wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson (thigh) will be available to play in Week 2 against the visiting Green Bay Packers after he returned to a full practice this week in all three practices. Patterson is going to fill a joker role in 2023 as a versatile running back and pass-catcher, but that role isn't going to be conducive to fantasy success as long as both running backs Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier are active. The 32-year-old shouldn't be rostered in standard 12-team season-long leagues at this point. Patterson didn't play in the Week 1 win over the Carolina Panthers, so he'll be making his 2023 debut this Sunday.

  • Cordarrelle Patterson A Full Participant In Practice

    Headshot for Cordarrelle Patterson

    Atlanta Falcons running back/wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson (thigh) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Patterson was held out of the Week 1 win over the Carolina Panthers with a soft-tissue injury in his thigh, but he's clearly improved and should be able to make his 2023 debut in Week 2 this Sunday against the visiting Green Bay Packers, barring a setback later this week. The Falcons now have rookie first-rounder Bijan Robinson and second-year back Tyler Allgeier ahead of Patterson on the depth chart, so the 32-year-old veteran will operate in more of a joker hybrid role as the Falcons look to use his versatility as a ball-carrier and pass-catcher to their advantage. While Patterson still has big-play ability, this new role isn't likely to yield much in terms of consistent fantasy production.

  • Cordarrelle Patterson Inactive For Week 1

    Headshot for Cordarrelle Patterson

    Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson (thigh) is officially inactive for Sunday's season opener against the Carolina Panthers. The veteran had been listed as questionable after being limited in practice this past week. Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier will handle the bulk of opportunities out of the backfield, as expected.

  • Cordarrelle Patterson Questionable To Play Week 1

    Headshot for Cordarrelle Patterson

    Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson (thigh), who is listed at the "joker" position on the team's official depth chart, is officially questionable for Week 1. The fact that he has been a limited participant in practice all week long offers very little insight into whether he may or may not play. With that said, even if he does suit up, Patterson is expected to operate behind Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier, keeping him off the fantasy radar for the time being.

  • Cordarrelle Patterson A Limited Participant In Practice On Wednesday

    Headshot for Cordarrelle Patterson

    Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson (thigh) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. The veteran ball carrier has missed practice over the last few weeks while dealing with his thigh injury so a limited session on Wednesday gives him a shot to suit up on Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. Patterson was listed as the "Joker" on the Falcons' depth chart earlier on Wednesday, which suggests that they'd get him the ball in some creative ways if he were able to play in Week 1 on Sunday. If Patterson does end up playing, he's likely not at full health, and Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier would be first in line in touches before him. That makes him a low-end RB3 for fantasy purposes.

  • Cordarrelle Patterson Listed With New Position On Depth Chart

    Headshot for Cordarrelle Patterson

    The Atlanta Falcons have created a new position on their depth chart for running back Cordarrelle Patterson. The Falcons listed Patterson as the starter at the Joker offensive position, which is generally used for a player who can fill multiple roles in the passing and running games. The former first-rounder was drafted in 2013 by the Minnesota Vikings as a wide receiver but moved to RB when he joined the Falcons in 2021. The 32-year-old hasn't practiced since Aug. 9 due to a soft-tissue injury, and it remains to be seen how the Falcons will use Patterson in 2023 with rookie first-rounder Bijan Robinson and second-year back Tyler Allgeier in position to get more carries than Patterson. He may not even be active in Week 1 against the Carolina Panthers.

  • Cordarrelle Patterson Misses Monday's Practice

    Headshot for Cordarrelle Patterson

    Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson (undisclosed) did not take part in practice on Monday and could be questionable to play in Week 1 against the Carolina Panthers. Patterson has been out since the middle of last month with an undisclosed soft-tissue injury. We won't know more about the 32-year-old's availability for the start of the 2023 regular season until the team releases their first injury report on Wednesday. With rookie first-rounder Bijan Robinson and second-year back Tyler Allgeier ahead of Patterson on the RB depth chart anyway, he won't be worth of a starting lineup spot in fantasy in Week 1, even if he gets past his injury and is active on Sunday against the Panthers.

    Headshot for Tyler Allgeier

    Winners of seven games in four of the past five seasons, the Falcons have both overachieved talent-wise — during the Arthur Smith years, at least — while largely hovering off the radar. After two clear transition years that brought substantial dead money into the equation, the Falcons’ Smith-Terry Fontenot operation has moved to a point […]

  • Cordarrelle Patterson To Miss Multiple Weeks

    Headshot for Cordarrelle Patterson

    Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson will be out for a couple of weeks, according to head coach Arthur Smith. There weren't many more details given outside of the fact it's a soft-tissue injury. Patterson will miss the rest of the preseason before being re-evaluated ahead of Week 1 of the regular season. There's a chance that Patterson isn't ready for the beginning of the season. That means, Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier could have increased roles in the passing game without Patterson available.
