Who Should I Start? Tyler Allgeier or Jaydon Blue

Tuesday, November 25, 11:36 AM

Across 11 games this season, Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier has recorded 89 catches for 324 yards and seven touchdowns. As long as star Falcons back Bijan Robinson remains healthy, Allgeier's production upside is limited. However, the Falcons have consistently demonstrated a willingness to use Allgeier in goal-to-go situations, which gives him touchdown-scoring potential every week. Additionally, should Robinson get injured, Allgeier holds fantasy league-winning potential. As the fantasy playoffs draw closer in most leagues, Allgeier is worth rostering for his handcuff upside alone. In the right matchups, such as Atlanta's Week 13 game against the New York Jets, Allgeier has standalone value as a flex option. He should be rostered in all leagues with 12 or more teams heading into Week 13.

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Jaydon Blue and wide receiver Jonathan Mingo are both healthy scratches for the Monday night game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Blue didn't do anything over the bye week to convince the Cowboys that he deserved to be active in Week 11. The 21-year-old drew rave reviews in training camp during the summer, but he has been active in only four games in his first year in the NFL and has 22 rushing attempts for 65 yards while catching one pass for five yards. The Cowboys elevated Malik Davis to the active 53-man roster, and he will operate as the RB2 behind starter Javonte Williams on Monday. Mingo was activated from the Injured Reserve before the Week 8 game, but he has yet to play so far in 2025.
