Rushes for 18-105-1 vs. CAR 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.

Impact Allgeier finished as the Falcons' leading rusher in a game where the backfield rushed for 200 yards and three touchdowns. Starter Bijan Robinson (15-95-2) produced the better fantasy score after hitting pay dirt twice in the first half of Sunday's win. The 24-year-old Allgeier still put up noteworthy numbers considering he had yet to hit double-digit carries in any of Atlanta's previous five games this season. Allgeier's big performance should give him FLEX appeal against a porous Seattle rush defense in Week 6.

Minor roles continues 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.

Impact 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.

Leading rusher in Week 4 win 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.

Impact Despite the modest volume, Allgeier actually led the 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.

Limited work again Allgeier rushed seven times for 32 yards during Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Chiefs.

Impact 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 Falcons backfield, leaving Allgeier as merely an insurance policy in fantasy.

Logs full practice Thursday Allgeier (hip) practiced in full Thursday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Allgeier operated with a cap on his reps at Wednesday's session, but his return to all activity one day later paves the way for him to continue serving as Atlanta's No. 2 RB behind Bijan Robinson. Through two games, Allgeier has 13 touches to Robinson's 41, and so far the former is averaging 6.2 yards per carry on the campaign.

SEPTEMBER 19 • ATLANTAFALCONS.COM

Tending to hip issue Allgeier was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a hip injury, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact After a quiet three carries Week 1, Allgeier was a bit more involved behind starting running back Bijan Robinson on Monday at Philadelphia, turning 10 touches into 65 yards from scrimmage. Robinson so far is averaging 20.5 touches per game through two contests, but it appears there's still room for Allgeier to get in the Falcons' backfield mix. Still, Allgeier is working through a health concern this week, making his status worthwhile to watch to get a sense of his availability ahead of a matchup with the Chiefs on Sunday Night Football.

SEPTEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Move involved in Week 2 Allgeier rushed nine times for 53 yards and caught his lone target for 12 yards during Monday's 22-21 win over the Eagles.

Impact After three touches in nine offensive snaps during Week 1, Allgeier touched the ball on 10 of his 13 offensive snaps during Monday Night Football. However, starting RB Bijan Robinson was the star of the Falcons' offense all night, totaling 19 touches for 101 yards. Allgeier's snap count through two games suggests he's nothing more than a handcuff, but his 6.2 yards per carry tells a different story. While that's likely unsustainable, Allgeier's efficient night might earn him more opportunities moving forward.

SEPTEMBER 17 • ROTOWIRE

Minor role in Week 1 loss Allgeier rushed three times for 21 yards during Sunday's 18-10 loss to the Steelers.

Impact Allgeier played only 10 offensive snaps while starting running back Bijan Robinson saw 50. Allgeier remains a strong handcuff, but despite optimistic reports about Allgeier's role this offseason, the latter's Week 1 usage suggests that's all the fantasy value he'll have this season under new OC Zac Robinson. Allgeier averaged 12 touches per outing in 2023 despite a season-low six in Week 17, but he had a 75-yard receiving TD in that game. Barring an injury to Bijan, Allgeier will have a tough time replicating that production in 2024.

Ticketed for big role again Offensive coordinator Zac Robinson said Tuesday that Allgeier "certainly is going to have a big role" again, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports.

Impact It's not what Bijan Robinson drafters want to hear, following a rookie season in which the 2023 eighth overall pick got only 28 more carries (214 to 186) than his backfield mate. Allgeier wasn't as efficient as he had been during his own rookie season the year prior, dropping from 4.9 yards per carry in 2022 to 3.7 YPC in 2023, but it sounds like the new coaching staff in Atlanta nonetheless views him as a big part of their plan on offense. While the workload figures to shift more in Robinson's favor this year, it might not be quite to the extent people are hoping for when they use a first-round fantasy pick on the 22-year-old.
