Mike Smith: Adding to running back position not a priority

A few media folks have wondered about a possible reunion of LaDainian Tomlinson and Michael Turner in Atlanta, but Falcons coach Mike Smith seemed to downplay the idea Friday.

While he noted the team always wants to improve it’s depth at running back, he spoke glowingly of Michael Turner and especially his backup Jason Snelling.

He also said that he likes the matchup problems that Jerious Norwood provides and said that running back wasn’t one of the team’s top priorities going into the offseason.

So you can basically scratch another team off the Tomlinson wish list.
