Tyler Allgeier News
Friday, August 14, 12:19 AM
Arizona Cardinals running back Tyler Allgeier saw minimal usage behind starter Jeremiyah Love (ankle) in Thursday's 27-14 preseason win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Allgeier operated in a relief role, spelling the rookie, who had 14 touches in the first half. Allgeier himself logged four rushing attempts for 19 yards. After rushing for 1,035 yards as a rookie in 2022, Allgeier looked like an up-and-coming stud running back until the Falcons drafted Bijan Robinson the next season and made him their featured back. Allgeier left Atlanta as a free agent and signed a two-year deal with Arizona on March 9, only for the Cardinals to select Love with the third overall pick in the NFL Draft two months later. Love is expected to be Arizona's starting running back, but Allgeier could still figure prominently in a timeshare. Allgeier's next chance to make his case for more touches will come on August 22 when the Cardinals face the Dallas Cowboys.

Tank Bigsby News
Monday, August 17, 9:17 AM
Philadelphia Eagles running back Tank Bigsby (toe) was not practicing Monday, according to Zach Berman. Bigsby has been getting plenty of work behind Saquon Barkley during training camp and is currently listed second at running back on Philadelphia's unofficial depth chart, ahead of Will Shipley. He has also mixed in regularly with the first-team offense this summer after showing some explosiveness in a limited role last season. Bigsby rushed 58 times for 344 yards and two touchdowns after joining the Eagles in a September trade with Jacksonville, averaging 5.9 yards per carry. It's unclear how much time the toe injury might cost him, so his status will be worth watching over the next few practices. Any extended absence would create more opportunities for Shipley and the rest of Philadelphia's backfield behind Barkley.
