Devonta Freeman has been dominating the NFL and fantasy football world for quite some time now. Freeman has become the Falcons main offensive weapon and has made Julio Jones rather quiet in the fantasy world.
Jones has been lacking in production over the past two weeks and if it weren't for a fumble recovery in the end zone Jones would have fantasy owners expressing their deepest concerns. Jones is questionable for Thursdays fight with the Saints which may be a signal to the Falcons that they need to lighten his workload. Jones has been dealing with minor toe and hamstring injuries that have hampered his production significantly.
Jones might need to rest to return to a productive state however it could also be that the Falcons no longer depend on their wide receivers to drive their offense. Freeman has been dominate up to this point in the season and has been taking the brunt of the workload and it might be taking a toll on his body. Freeman has been limited with a toe issue in practice and with Tevin Coleman is returning from broken ribs.
Coleman has had a couple of weeks to heal and now could potentially take over with Freeman ailing. With Coleman coming back the Falcons be looking at their next 100 yard rusher especially against the Saints week run defense.
The Falcons are going to need to figure out how to win games and keep their stars healthy if they want to make a deep run into the playoffs.
