Summary

Cordarrelle Patterson reinvented himself in 2021, a season where he turned into the Falcons version of Deebo Samuel, a true two-way offensive weapon. Patterson's usage in a given game varied from a primary running back to a primary receiver with quality utility in both regards. If viewing Patterson through the running back prism, only five backs with 100 or more rushes had more receptions than Patterson's 52 last season. If viewing Patterson as a wide receiver, only Deebo Samuel (at times) can be an offensive weapon comparison with Patterson's 153 rushing attempts. Patterson returning to Atlanta is the best news for a repeat, or expansion, of his usage with 205 offensive touches. The lack of skill position talent beyond Kyle Pitts is a vote of confidence in Patterson being heavily involved as well.
