Tyler Allgeier News
Monday, September 28, 7:12 AM
Arizona Cardinals running back Tyler Allgeier took a clear back seat to Jeremiyah Love in Sunday's 36-30 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Allgeier carried twice for a loss of one yard and caught four passes for 10 yards, giving him six touches on the afternoon. Love handled 21 carries for 90 yards and added five catches for 19 yards and a touchdown, finishing with 26 touches. The difference was hard to miss after Arizona opened the season with a much more balanced split. Allgeier had 19 touches to Love's 13 in Week 1, while Love held a 12-to-7 edge in Week 2. Sunday was different. Love also played 56 offensive snaps compared with 31 for Allgeier, another sign that the rookie had moved to the front of the backfield for this game. It is still only one week, but Allgeier's usage Sunday looked much more like a clear No. 2 role than the near-even committee Arizona used to open the season.

Keaton Mitchell News
Saturday, September 26, 2:17 PM
Los Angeles Chargers running back Keaton Mitchell hasn't turned his explosiveness into fantasy production yet this year. The 24-year-old has nine carries for 33 yards, with his longest run going for 11 yards through two games. He has seen minimal touches and is the clear RB2 behind Omarion Hampton. Mitchell enters Week 3 as RotoBaller's PPR RB47 in a difficult matchup. The Bills defense has allowed the sixth-fewest yards per carry and the 11th-fewest rushing yards this season. The game also has the second-highest over/under total of the week (50.5). The Chargers will attempt to keep pace with the high-powered Josh Allen-led offense, but could be forced to play catch-up early. If Mitchell cannot earn passing-down snaps this week, he could get fazed out of the offense. Mitchell should remain out of fantasy lineups in Week 3 despite his intriguing explosiveness.
