Tyler Allgeier News
Monday, June 29, 12:41 PM
For the majority of his time with the Atlanta Falcons, Arizona Cardinals running back Tyler Allgeier was one of the NFL's most qualified backups behind Falcons superstar Bijan Robinson. When Allgeier signed with the Cardinals in March, it looked like he might get his opportunity to start. However, Arizona followed up the signing by using the third overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft on running back Jeremiyah Love. As a result, Allgeier appears destined for RB2 duties once again in his new home. Still, the 26-year-old proved he can be effective in a reserve role in Atlanta, recording 514 rushing yards and eight touchdowns on 143 carries in 2025. Arizona could also choose to bring Love along slowly by opting for more of a committee backfield approach in 2026. Even if Love takes over as the Cardinals RB1 right away, Allgeier remains one of the top handcuff options for fantasy managers. As the RB49 by current redraft ADP, Allgeier may be worth targeting in the later rounds of drafts.

Bijan Robinson News
Wednesday, June 17, 8:27 AM
Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson put together an excellent season in 2025, recording a league-leading 2,298 scrimmage yards and 11 touchdowns on 366 touches across 17 games. The 24-year-old reached new heights as a receiver out of the backfield last season, hauling in 79 catches for 820 yards and four scores on 103 targets. Entering 2026, Robinson once again profiles as the focal point of the Falcons' offense. He may even see more chances as a goal-line rusher following the offseason departure of former Atlanta running back Tyler Allgeier, who logged eight rushing touchdowns in 2025. The Falcons' overall offensive ecosystem has major question marks thanks to the underwhelming quarterback quo of Michael Penix Jr. (knee) and Tua Tagovailoa. Still, Robinson has shown he can put up monster fantasy production without strong quarterback play in every season of his career to this point. As Robinson enters his age-24 season, dynasty contenders should value him as highly as any player in fantasy football.
