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.

Ollie Gordon II News
Sunday, March 15, 8:26 AM
Across 17 games as a rookie in 2025, Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II recorded 70 carries for 199 yards and three touchdowns. While Gordon II flashed upside at different points throughout the season, he was ultimately blocked off from playing time by superstar Dolphins back De'Von Achane. Gordon II also lost some playing time down the stretch to Miami running back Jaylen Wright, who finished the year with the same number of carries (70) as Gordon II. The Dolphins will have a new coaching staff in place for the 2026 season, which brings some uncertainty to the backfield playing time situation. Still, barring a trade, Gordon II will undoubtedly be stuck behind Achane and may ultimately end up third on his team's running back depth chart. Gordon II retains some dynasty value after 2025, but it's difficult to project a year two breakout without a drastic change to the situation around him in Miami.
