Falcons' Tyler Allgeier: Double-digit touches in Week 10
Tyler Allgeier rushed 11 times for 59 yards during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Saints.Allgeier garnered double-digit rushing attempts for just the third time in 2024. Despite being stymied at the one-yard line on three consecutive plays in the second quarter -- Bijan Robinson eventually scored on fourth down -- Allgeier was actually efficient with his increased workload, recording at least 5.0 yards per carry for the sixth game this season. In five games with at least eight carries, Allgeier has rushed for 310 yards, but he's totaled only 119 rushing yards in his other five appearances.

Falcons' Tyler Allgeier: Scores second TD of 2024
Tyler Allgeier rushed six times for 18 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 27-21 win over the Cowboys.After seeing double-digit rushing attempts for just the second time this season in Week 8, Allgeier had one of his smallest workloads of the campaign versus Dallas. His 13 offensive snaps and 18 rushing yards tied for his second fewest in a game this season, while his six rushing attempts tied for his third fewest through nine appearances. He somewhat salvaged his production with a fourth-quarter touchdown that put Atlanta up two scores. Allgeier has had standalone value at times this season, but he's best utilized as an insurance policy for Bijan Robinson.

Falcons' Tyler Allgeier: Modest production in win
Tyler Allgeier rushed 12 times for 33 yards in Sunday's 31-26 win over the Buccaneers.Allgeier played 22 of the Atlanta Falcons' 62 offensive snaps Sunday, well behind starter Bijan Robinson, who was on the field for 42 snaps. Despite the lopsided playing time in favor of Robinson, the 24-year-old Allgeier earned a near-even split in carries with Robinson, handling 12 carries to Robinson's 13 attempts on the ground. Allgeier was not involved in the passing game, while Robinson saw seven targets against the Buccaneers. Going forward, the former will continue to operate as the backup and hold minimal standalone value, though he would get a major boost if Robinson were to miss time down the stretch. The Falcons are set to host the Cowboys in Week 9.

Falcons' Tyler Allgeier: Reverts to minor role in Week 7
Tyler Allgeier rushed five times for 36 yards and caught his lone target for nine yards during Sunday's 34-14 loss to the Seahawks.After a season-best performance (18 rushes for 105 yards and a TD) last week against Carolina, Allgeier reverted to his usual reserve role. He played only 16 offensive snaps in the blowout loss, his fewest since Week 3, and Allgeier's six touches was his lowest mark since Week 1. Allgeier's performance against the Panthers looks like an outlier, but the backup running back still has fantasy value as an insurance policy for Bijan Robinson.

Falcons' Tyler Allgeier: Clears century mark in Week 6
Tyler Allgeier rushed 18 times for 105 yards and a touchdown while catching his lone target for three yards in Sunday's 38-20 win over Carolina.Allgeier finished as the Atlanta Falcons' leading rusher in a game the Atlanta backfield tallied 200 yards and three touchdowns on the ground. Starter Bijan Robinson (15 carries for 95 yards and two touchdowns) produced the better fantasy line after hitting pay dirt twice in the first half of Sunday's win. The 24-year-old Allgeier still put up noteworthy numbers and reached double-digit carries for the first time all season. Allgeier's big performance should give him some appeal in deeper leagues Week 7, when the Falcons will match up with a porous Seattle run defense.

Falcons' Tyler Allgeier: Minor roles continues
Tyler Allgeier rushed six times for 12 yards and caught all three of his targets for 13 yards during Thursday's 36-30 overtime win over Tampa Bay.Allgeier continues to see limited offensive snaps, and Thursday was his least efficient night thus far. He's still averaging 5.4 yards per carry, a significant improvement over his 3.7 mark from last season. Allgeier has yet to see more than 10 touches in a game this season but remains an insurance policy for managers rostering Bijan Robinson.

Falcons' Tyler Allgeier: Leading rusher in Week 4 win
Tyler Allgeier carried the ball eight times for 60 yards and caught both his targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 26-24 win over the Saints.Despite the modest volume, Allgeier actually led the Atlanta Falcons' backfield in both carries and rushing yards, topping Bijan Robinson's lackluster seven totes for 28 yards. Allgeier still hasn't seen more than 10 touches in a game this season, and despite the relatively even division of the workload Sunday, he isn't going to suddenly challenge Robinson for the top spot on the depth chart. However, both backs could be productive in Week 5 against a Buccaneers defense that has struggled against the run so far in 2024.

Falcons' Tyler Allgeier: Limited work again
Tyler Allgeier rushed seven times for 32 yards during Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Chiefs.Allgeier was on the field for only 13 offensive snaps. He's played around 20 percent of Atlanta's offensive snaps through three weeks, but when he's out there, the backup RB is heavily involved, recording 20 touches on 35 snaps. Allgeier boasts a solid 5.6 yards per carry thus far, showing signs of his rookie campaign in 2022 when he rushed for 1,035 yards and averaged 4.9 yards per carry. Last year, Allgeier averaged only 3.7 yards per carry. Regardless, Bijan Robinson remains the star of the Atlanta Falcons backfield, leaving Allgeier as merely an insurance policy in fantasy.
