Who Should I Start? Raheem Mostert or Tyler Allgeier

Saturday, November 29, 11:06 AM

Las Vegas Raiders running back Raheem Mostert has served as the primary backup to rookie Ashton Jeanty this season, totaling 20 carries for 92 yards, along with nine receptions (nine targets) for 63 yards in eight games. The veteran hasn't recorded more than four touches in a game since Week 6 against the Tennessee Titans. Mostert would be in line to handle the bulk of the touches for the Raiders if Jeanty were to miss any time, but he remains off fantasy radars for Week 13 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier garnered double-digit carries in Week 12, rushing 12 times for 44 yards, and even received one target, which he caught for five yards. Unfortunately for fantasy managers who deployed him as a Flex option, the 25-year-old was unable to find the end zone as he'd done in three of the four previous weeks and seven times this season. The BYU product could see a similar workload in Week 13 in what should be a competitive contest versus the Jets, with the Falcons as three-point road favorites. New York has yielded the ninth-most half-point PPR points to opposing running backs this season, but in what projects to be a low-scoring affair, Allgeier will continue to be a risky RB3/Flex that, if he doesn't score, comes with a very low floor.
