Who Should I Start? Kenneth Walker III or Tyler Allgeier

Sunday, December 7, 7:55 AM

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III has been able to rank as an RB2 in fantasy football despite sharing touches with Zach Charbonnet, and that trend should continue in Week 14 against the Atlanta Falcons. Walker has been impressive lately, tallying double-digit fantasy points (PPR) in each of his last three games. During that three-week span, he has 40 carries, 194 rushing yards, nine catches, 92 receiving yards, and one touchdown. He has consistently played around 55% to 60% of the offensive snaps, leaving roughly 10 touches and a snap share around 40% for Charbonnet. The two have shown that they can co-exist, with Walker still being the preferred option out of the backfield. This week, he can be a strong RB2 option against a Falcons defense that has allowed the 12th-most fantasy points to running backs in 2025. Walker ranks as the overall RB18 in RotoBaller's latest rankings for Week 14. He should be started with confidence in most leagues.

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier continued his improbable run of scoring a touchdown on limited production last week, rushing just eight times for 20 yards (2.5 yards per carry), but found the end zone for the eighth time this season. His eight touchdowns are a team-high total, and he'll get a chance to keep it rolling in Week 14 against the Seahawks. It will be tough sledding, though, against a Seattle defense that has yielded the fourth-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs this season, which is a result of an 88.8 opponent rush yards per game average and 3.8 yards per attempt, both the second-lowest marks in the league. Still, Allgeier has managed to defy the odds to this point given his modest output, so he's as good a dice roll as any out there for fantasy managers in need of an RB3/Flex play this week.
