49ers Rookie RB Glen Coffee To Handle Every Down Duties?

The 49ers have games the next two weeks against the St. Louis Rams and Atlanta Falcons, followed by their Oct 18 bye week. The first game for which Gore might be available is Oct. 25 against the Houston Texans. Rookie Glen Coffee, a third-round draft pick from Alabama, will take over the every-down duties. And, right now, the 49ers do no appear inclined to promote Kory Sheets from the practice squad.

That could be enough against the Rams. I don't know about the Falcons, though...

 

why not activating kory sheets from the PS??

I would love to see him in action!!

 

Because he can't pass block for crap. I would love for Sheets to be on the team, but he has to improve.

 

eh, i wouldn't worry about it. the falcons run defense is now back to 2008 form. don't be surprised if they just pound the ball straight at them for 60 minutes and coffee ends up with 30 carries for 150 yards .....................

 

Cant improve if you don't give him the shot...I hopes some other team snatches him up...no need to waste him like a Thomas Clayton, albeit he wasn't that good...
