Who Should I Start? Zamir White or Tyler Allgeier

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White has reclaimed his role as the team's primary backup to Ashton Jeanty heading into Week 7. After briefly losing the job to Raheem Mostert, White appears to have earned back the RB2 spot following Mostert's recent struggles. While Jeanty continues to handle the majority of touches as the Raiders' clear workhorse, White's return to the No. 2 role puts him back on the fantasy radar as a valuable handcuff. The 26-year-old's combination of power and downhill running fits well in short-yardage and late-game situations, and he would hold immediate flex value if Jeanty were to miss time. For now, White remains a bench stash in most fantasy formats but is worth monitoring in deeper leagues or for managers seeking insurance behind one of the league's most heavily utilized backs.

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier has just three carries for 10 yards in his team's Week 11 loss to the Carolina Panthers. However, Allgeier did manage to find his way into the end zone against Carolina for his seventh rushing touchdown of the 2025 season and his fourth in the last four weeks. Across 10 games this season, the 25-year-old has rushed for 280 yards and seven scores on 77 rush attempts. Allgeier remains the clear RB2 in Atlanta behind star running back Bijan Robinson. However, Allgeier has more rushing touchdowns than Robinson and clearly has the trust of the Atlanta coaching staff in short-yardage situations. Allgeier's goal-line role gives him some flex appeal in the right matchups, and he'd profile as a must-start fantasy running back if Robinson were to get injured. Allgeier should be rostered in all fantasy leagues with 12 or more teams heading into a Week 12 matchup against the New Orleans Saints.
