Coleman -- who suffered a fractured rib in Week 2 -- is on track to return to practice this week, ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Coach Dan Quinn noted Monday that the Falcons are hopeful that Coleman could end up playing against Washington on Sunday, but such an outcome is not a lock at this stage. In Coleman's absence, fellow RB Devonta Freeman has gone on a tear, so even if Coleman is able to return to action in Week 5, he'd figure to be re-introduced to the team's backfield in a complementary role.
