7 RB options for the Falcons in free agency

The Falcons aren’t in the market for any of this year’s top free agents, meaning Titans star running back Derrick Henry is out of the question.

2019 Stats: N/A (injury)

Analysis: Riddick is the ultimate bargain bin option in free agency. His stock is especially low after missing the 2019 season with the Broncos due to a shoulder injury. Prior to that, Riddick was known as one of the best pass-catching backs in the NFL with the Lions, averaging 56 receptions per year over his last five seasons in Detroit. He doesn’t bring much as a runner (3.6 career yards per carry average), but as a third down back, Riddick is well-suited to catch screen passes in Dirk Koetter’s offense.
