Who Should I Start? Dalton Schultz or Tyler Allgeier

Saturday, October 25, 9:49 AM

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz (back/shoulder) was limited in practice this week, but does not have an injury designation for Week 8. The veteran tight end will likely be a big part of the passing game with Nico Collins (concussion) and Christian Kirk (hamstring) both ruled out. Last week, Schultz had a season-high nine catches for 98 yards against the Seahawks, and he has at least five catches in four straight games. He's a solid PPR contributor even though he is averaging under 10 yards per catch on the year and hasn't found the end zone yet this season. Schultz is the TE11 in RotoBaller's Week 8 rankings, and he can be a great bye-week fill-in as a fringe TE1 this week, with both a high ceiling and a high floor since he should be lined up for plenty of volume.

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier (hip) is officially active for Sunday's contest against the Miami Dolphins. The team's No. 2 running back practiced in a limited capacity all week but was able to progress enough to suit up. In Week 7, Allgeier had had a limited role, taking just four carries for a mere 16 yards. However, in Week 6, Allgeier took 10 carries for 32 yards and punched in his third rushing score of the campaign. Through six games, Allgeier has tallied 203 yards despite operating as the clear No. 2 option behind Bijan Robinson. Given that the Falcons will face a weak Miami defense that has allowed the fourth-most PPR points to opposing RBs this season, Allgeier carries sneaky FLEX upside in this matchup.
