Who Should I Start? Kenneth Walker III or Tyler Allgeier

Friday, November 14, 5:31 PM

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III is not a fantasy starter in Week 11 against the Los Angeles Rams. Walker is running solidly for Seattle, but he has not been able to break off a big play or find the end zone consistently in 2025. Additionally, Seattle is relying on running back Zach Charbonnet at the goal line. Even when Seattle is in scoring position, Walker often does not have a chance to punch it in. What is more, the Rams are No. 2 against opposing running backs in fantasy. They are allowing just 3.74 yards per carry to opposing running backs. To make matters worse, the Rams are No. 15 in receiving yards allowed to opposing running backs, limiting what little receiving upside Walker has. Walker has not scored double-digit fantasy points since Week 4. He has not scored a touchdown since Week 3. He is not receiving enough volume to overcome the lack of touchdowns, either. Walker should be benched in Week 11, and he is approaching drop candidate status.

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier continues to put himself in the Flex conversation after scoring his fifth and sixth rushing touchdowns of the season last week. In games where Atlanta remains competitive, the 25-year-old tends to stay involved, and Week 11's matchup against the Panthers should be one of those games despite losing to Carolina 30-0 back in Week 3. Carolina has allowed 157 yards rushing per game over the last three weeks, which is the fourth-highest total in the league, and has been stingy against the pass, so Atlanta may prefer to stick to the ground in this one as much as possible. The BYU product has been getting a healthy number of attempts inside the red zone, including five last week compared to just one for Bijan Robinson, so he could be in line for a score this week, too. Averaging just 3.6 yards per carry, though, makes him a touchdown-dependent RB4/Flex option, who has put up just a total of 5.0 fantasy points in the games in which he failed to score.
