While rookie running back Tevin Coleman had a strong start for the Atlanta Falcons in Week 12, rushing for 110 yards, there's no question that fans are hoping to get their star second-year running back healthy in Week 13.

For Devonta Freeman, who suffered a concussion back in Week 11, it's been a bit of a climb to get back, but the team's official Twitter had some good news from head coach Dan Quinn.

Even if Freeman doesn't dominate the carries the same way he did earlier on in the year, there's no question that Atlanta is a better team with their newly found star lining up in the backfield.

Freeman's status will be monitored closely as we get closer to the matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but all signs seem positive for a return.
