Tyler Allgeier Has Possible RB3 Value

Tyler Allgeier Has Possible RB3 Value

one year ago

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier saw a majority of the snaps in the backfield last week. The second-year back carried the ball 21 times for 59 yards in the win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It's worth noting that he saw an increased usage because lead back Bijan Robinson (illness) was kept on the sideline for a majority of the game. The expectation is that Robinson will resume his role as the lead back this week. That means, Allgeier should see a reduced role, but could still be productive versus the Tennessee Titans. Fantasy managers should consider Allgeier a possible RB3 for this upcoming Week 8 matchup.
