Who Should I Start? Tyler Allgeier or RJ Harvey

Thursday, November 20, 10:23 PM

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier continues to earn goal-line opportunities, and his three touchdowns over the Falcons' last two games have salvaged his otherwise uninspiring performances. Allgeier has 14 carries for 67 yards over those two contests, plus a pair of receptions. However, he also has three rushing touchdowns, scoring at least 9.6 fantasy points (PPR) in each of the two games. The Falcons have shown a tendency to give the ball to their running backs around the goal line, as Bijan Robinson and Allgeier have combined for five touchdowns over the last two games, including three last Sunday. As long as there are enough goal-line opportunities to go around, Allgeier should continue to score touchdowns at a promising rate. He remains in the RB3/flex tier ahead of Week 12 against the New Orleans Saints, but managers must accept the fact that his value is heavily dependent on finding the end zone. As a result, he's more of a matchup-based play rest-of-season.

Denver Broncos rookie running back R.J. Harvey could handle a workhorse role for the rest of the season. In his first game as the lead back, Harvey handled 11 carries for 30 yards, while adding 20 yards on three receptions through the air. His first game as the starter came against the Kansas City Chiefs, who have been a top-five run defense in 2025. The exciting news about the 2025 second-round pick's fantasy outlook is that he dominated the snap share in Week 11. He played a season-high 62% of the snaps, while Jaleel McLaughlin and Tyler Badie played 13%. Coming out of the bye week, the Broncos will face the Washington Commanders, who have given up the third-most fantasy points to running backs this season. With a strong workload and a good schedule coming out of the bye week, Harvey is an ideal buy-low candidate for fantasy managers and could be a league winner down the stretch.
