Tyler Allgeier a Low-End Flex Against Tough Minnesota Run Defense

Saturday, September 13, 12:25 PM

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier earned double-digit touches in Week 1, although against a stout Tampa run defense, he was unable to convert them into much production, logging just 24 yards on 10 totes. The 25-year-old back was a non-factor in the passing game, not even drawing a single target compared to Bijan Robinson's seven targets. Allgeier tallied 10 or more carries just five times in 17 games last year, so this likely won't be a regular occurrence, however, the product out of BYU did have a solid game against Minnesota last year, which is who he'll face on Sunday night. The 5-foot-10 back ran nine times for 63 yards and a score in this matchup last year, so he's got a chance to produce again, but the Vikings allowed just 53 yards to running backs last week (QB Caleb Williams ran for 58) and allowed the second-fewest rush yards per game in '24, leaving Allgeier as nothing more than an RB4 or low-end Flex play in Week 2.
