WAYNE GALLMAN NEWS

Reverts back to practice squad Gallman reverted to the Seahawks' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Gallman was inactive for Saturday's loss to the Chiefs, which leaves him with a few more chances to make his season debut. The 28-year-old is eligible for two more elevations from Seattle's practice squad this year.

Won't play versus Kansas City Gallman (coach's decision) has been ruled inactive ahead of Saturday's game against the Chiefs.

Impact Gallman bounced around practice squads this season before re-joining Seattle's last Saturday. The 28-year-old was then elevated to the active roster Friday, but he will wind up watching Saturday's contest from the sideline after Kenneth Walker (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) were both ruled active pregame. Gallman will now be eligible for two more elevations while on the Seahawks' practice squad this season.

Chance to make season debut Seattle elevated Gallman to the active roster from the practice squad Friday ahead of Saturday's game against Kansas City, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Impact Gallman will have a chance to make his NFL debut after being elevated to Seattle's active roster for the first time this season. Kenneth Walker (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) are both listed as questionable but on track to play, so Gallman figures to garner a depth role and may play primarily on special teams.

Loses roster spot Gallman was cut from the Chiefs' practice squad Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

Impact Gallman has been with the team since Oct. 12, but he has yet to be elevated to the active roster. With the addition of Melvin Gordon to the practice squad, Gallman had become expendable. He'll work to find an opportunity elsewhere.

Injuries mounting for Chiefs with Bills matchup on horizon

Joins Chiefs' practice squad Kansas City signed Gallman to its practice squad Wednesday, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.

Impact Gallman has yet to see game action in 2022 after accumulating 125 all-purpose yards on 29 touches in 2021. As long as Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Isiah Pacheco and Jerick McKinnon remain healthy, Gallman probably won't be elevated to the active roster.

Vikings' depth hurting; Westbrook latest on COVID-19 list

The Minnesota Vikings have placed wide receiver/punt returner Dede Westbrook on the COVID-19 reserve list

DECEMBER 14, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Claimed by Vikings The Vikings have claimed Gallman off waivers from the Falcons.

Impact The move follows the placement of fellow running back Alexander Mattison on the Reserve/COVID-19 list. Gallman thus gives the Vikings added backfield depth behind top back Dalvin Cook. Also on currently on the team's active roster is RB Kene Nwangwu, while A.J. Rose is on Minnesota's practice squad.

Healthy scratch Week 13 Gallman (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

Impact Gallman played five offensive snaps and had four carries for 19 yards last week against the Jaguars, but he'll be a healthy scratch for Sunday's contest. Qadree Ollison was elevated from the practice squad and is active in Gallman's place.

DECEMBER 5, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Four touches in Week 12 Gallman rushed four times for 19 yards during Sunday's 21-14 win over the Jaguars.

Impact Gallman has been a non-factor in back-to-back weeks after his season-high performance -- 17 touches for 76 total yards -- in Week 10. Despite being out-touched by Mike Davis 8-4, Gallman was still able to match his production with 19 total yards. However, Davis' involvement in the passing game likely still solidifies him as the No. 2 fantasy commodity in the Falcons' backfield, but neither Gallman or Davis appear to be viable options when Cordarrelle Patterson is healthy.

Takes back seat in loss Gallman rushed one time for negative three yards during Thursday's 25-0 loss to the Patriots.

Impact After a season-high performance in Week 10, coach Arthur Smith made it clear that Gallman was still third on the depth chart at running back behind Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) and Mike Davis. However, Patterson was ruled out for the matchup with New England due to a sprained ankle, which elevated Gallman to the No. 2 spot. Nonetheless, he was still a nonfactor in the Falcons' Week 11 loss, and, surprisingly, Qadree Ollison led Atlanta's backfield with nine carries for 34 yards. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor the backfield situation, but if Patterson is healthy moving forward, it's likely he will demand the majority of touches.

Impact Smith went on to say that Gallman's season-high 52 percent snap share and season-high 15 carries in last week's 43-3 loss to the Cowboys was mostly a byproduct of a blowout, in addition to the fact that the Falcons faced a quick turnaround for Week 11 with a Thursday night game versus New England. With 23 snaps, Gallman outpaced both Patterson (15) and Davis (20), but Gallman won't be a lock to lead the way for the Atlanta backfield even if Patterson -- who is listed as questionable for Thursday's game -- ends up sitting. Prior to last week, both Patterson and Davis had consistently worked ahead of Gallman, and if Smith is to be believed, the pecking order among the backs won't change Week 11. That being said, a Patterson absence Thursday would still open up more opportunities for Gallman than usual, even if Davis is the likelier candidate of the two to pick up the start.

NOVEMBER 15, 2021 • FANDUEL.COM

Team-high 55 rushing yards Gallman rushed 15 times for 55 yards and caught one of two targets for 21 yards during Sunday's 43-3 loss to the Cowboys.

Impact After a healthy scratch in back-to-back contests, Gallman paced Atlanta's backfield during the blowout loss to Dallas on Sunday. The increased role was likely due to the game being out of reach, but it's certainly worth monitoring, as Mike Davis' production has been significantly reduced since Atlanta's Week 6 bye. If Gallman can overtake Davis on the depth chart, then he will likely be worth consideration in deeper leagues due to Matt Ryan's usage of running backs in the passing game. However, Cordarrelle Patterson's versatility will likely keep him solidified as the No. 1 fantasy option among Falcons' running backs.

Inactive Sunday Gallman (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game at New Orleans, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Impact Gallman will be a healthy scratch for the second consecutive contest. Qadree Ollison was elevated from the practice squad for Sunday and will serve as Atlanta's reserve tailback behind Mike Davis and Cordarrelle Patterson.

Healthy scratch Sunday Gallman (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Panthers.

Impact Gallman saw action in the past three games for Atlanta, totaling eight carries for 33 yards while failing to catch his lone target. He'll be a healthy scratch for Sunday, leaving Cordarrelle Patterson and Mike Davis as the team's two available tailbacks.

OCTOBER 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Not part of offensive game plan Gallman played three offensive snaps and rushed one time for two yards during Sunday's 30-28 win over the Dolphins.

Impact For the second straight game, Gallman rushed just one time for two yards and played just three offensive snaps. Barring an injury, the 27-year-old running back is not a viable fantasy option.
