Tyler Allgeier Misses Wednesday's Practice Session

Wednesday, October 28, 5:22 PM

Arizona Cardinals running back Tyler Allgeier (toe) didn't suit up for Wednesday's practice session, Zach Gershman reports. It appears the 26-year-old is dealing with a toe issue to begin the week. His absence is significant given that he has started in each of the last two games. Lead back Jeremiyah Love (ankle) returned to practice on Wednesday, so Allgeier could take a step back in Week 8. There's still plenty of time for Allgeier to get ready ahead of the Week 8 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. His overall fantasy value will likely take a hit if Love is back in the mix this weekend. Fantasy managers should continue to stay tuned for updates throughout the week.

Trey Benson Faces Extremely Difficult Path to Production Upon Return

Saturday, October 10, 11:48 AM

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee) is already set to miss the entire 2026 season, and he will likely have trouble carving out a meaningful role when he returns to action next year. This Cardinals team features a very impressive one-two punch of Jeremiyah Love and Tyler Allgeir, and there's no real opportunity for a third running back to carve out fantasy value as long as those two backs are healthy. At this point, fantasy managers might be rooting for the Cardinals to release Benson from IR with an injury settlement. He has already missed a full year with a meniscus injury, so he's presumably somewhat close to being healthy. If a new opportunity presents itself with a different team, Benson could have some fantasy relevance, depending on the landing spot. However, as long as he's a Cardinal and playing behind Love and Allgeier, he has no dynasty value. Managers should feel okay about dropping Benson at this point.
