Who Should I Start? Jashaun Corbin or Raheim Sanders

Tuesday, June 17, 8:52 PM

Per the team, the Atlanta Falcons have signed free-agent running back Jashaun Corbin to an undisclosed contract. Running back Jase McClellan was released in a corresponding move. The 24-year-old got some run with the New York Giants in 2023 but was waived last offseason and did not find work in the NFL last year. Corbin found his way to the UFL as a part of the San Antonio Brahmas and led the league in rushing in 2025. In addition to 97 carries for 514 yards and four touchdowns on the ground, he chipped in another 18 receptions for 138 yards through the air, finishing with the third-most all-purpose yards in the UFL. Atlanta has no immediate need for a running back, but they may utilize Corbin on special teams, as he also has experience in the return game.

Los Angeles Chargers undrafted rookie running back Raheim Sanders led the backfield in the team's 27-13 preseason win against the New Orleans Saints. He had 10 carries for 42 yards and a touchdown, along with one catch for 11 yards. The 23-year-old made a strong case for the third backup role in an already crowded backfield with Kimani Vidal, Hassan Haskins, and Nyheim Hines. Sanders, who transferred to South Carolina from Arkansas in his senior year, finished his college career with 881 yards on 183 carries and 11 touchdowns on the ground, plus 27 catches for 316 yards and two touchdowns. With Najee Harris' (eye) Week 1 availability uncertain, the rookie will have to continue to prove himself to secure a spot on the final roster.
