Tyler Allgeier News
Thursday, March 26, 6:37 PM
The Arizona Cardinals are setting up to be a run-heavy offense in 2026 under new head coach Mike LaFleur. Running backs James Conner (foot) and Trey Benson (knee) will both be returning from season-ending injuries early in 2025, and the team also signed former Atlanta Falcons RB Tyler Allgeier to a two-year, $12.25 million contract in free agency. The 25-year-old Allgeier could never truly reach his ceiling in Atlanta while working behind stud RB1 Bijan Robinson, and now he could be part of a three-headed RB attack in the desert, depending on the health of both Conner and Benson. Allgeier had a 1,000-yard rushing season in his rookie campaign in 2022 on 210 carries and then regressed each season after that in terms of yardage, although he did have a career-high eight TDs in 17 games in 2025. He's been durable in his four NFL seasons, missing just one game. Allgeier should at the very least be in play as a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex (like he was in Atlanta), but he'll have clear RB2 upside if he emerges as Arizona's backfield leader.

De'Von Achane News
Tuesday, April 7, 10:07 AM
Miami Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley said that running back De'Von Achane did not report to the first day of voluntary offseason workouts on Tuesday, according to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. "It's part of the business," Hafley said. Achane signed a four-year, $5.44 million contract with the team in May of 2023 after he was drafted in the third round that year out of Texas A&M. The 24-year-old was one of the few bright spots for the Dolphins on offense in 2025, and he finished as the RB6 in half-PPR scoring with 1,350 rushing yards and eight rushing touchdowns in 16 games while adding 67 receptions for 488 yards and four touchdowns as a receiver. Achane is an explosive dual-threat back who has had at least six rushing TDs in each of his first three years in the league. The Dolphins have been adamant that he's part of their future and won't be traded. Achane has a high floor as an RB1 in fantasy, but his value will be volume-based in an offense that will likely struggle for efficiency with both receivers Tyreek Hill (knee) and Jaylen Waddle gone.
