Tyler Allgeier - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Accrues 19 touches Sunday Allgeier compiled 17 carries for 46 yards and caught two of three targets for no yards during Sunday's 17-3 defeat at Seattle.

Impact Allegeier has reeled off 10-plus touches in four straight contests, a span in which he's turned 65 touches into 334 yards from scrimmage and two total TDs. He's been the beneficiary of repeated ankle injuries to rookie first-round pick Jeremiyah Love, who must remain on IR for at least three more outings after Sunday's matchup, and the other current top RB on the active roster (Bam Knight) is in the concussion protocol, which will require clearance from an independent neurologist for his next game action. As a result, Allgeier is set up to retain a significant workload until Knight gets the all clear to return.

Impact Allgeier previously led the Cardinals' backfield when Love was sidelined due to a different ankle injury Weeks 6 and 7, but Allgeier is now slated for a longer period in that role. Love was hurt late in the first quarter in his return to action Sunday against Dallas, and Allgeier ran wild after his departure, finishing with a career-high 147 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries along with 44 yards and another score on five receptions. In addition to Love getting hurt, Bam Knight suffered a concussion and is iffy to be able to suit up this Sunday against Seattle, so the backfield could belong to Allgeier, Evan Hull and a practice-squad signee (likely Jerome Ford). Though Allgeier found substantial success in Week 8, he came into the contest averaging just 2.9 yards per carry on 61 totes. He'll also be facing a Seattle defense in Week 9 that is tied for the second-fewest yards per carry (3.8) allowed to running backs this season, so a repeat performance by Allgeier would be surprising.

Jerry Jones calls it 'an indictment of the whole show' after Cowboys collapse against Cards

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones says it was “an indictment of the whole show” after his team blew a 14-point lead in the fourth quarter of a 33-30 overtime loss to Arizona

NOVEMBER 2 • Associated Press

Breaks out after RB injuries Allgeier reeled off 147 yards and one touchdown on 11 carries and gathered in all five targets for 44 yards and one more TD during Sunday's 33-30 overtime win in Dallas.

Impact Fellow RBs Jeremiyah Love (ankle) and Bam Knight (concussion) left in the second and third quarters, respectively, and were unable to return, leaving Allgeier as the only healthy and available backfield option the rest of the way. Allgeier didn't really get going until QB Gardner Minshew took over for Jacoby Brissett late in the third quarter, as the running back recorded a 63-yard touchdown run, another 52-yard carry and a five-yard TD grab on the next two drives to account for most of his output. Considering Love has been dealing with ankle issues for most of the season and already has missed two games, and Knight is subject to the protocol for head injuries, Allgeier may be in line for a boost in workload in the short term.

With the Cardinals depleted at RB, Tyler Allgeier is taking on an every-down role

NOVEMBER 1 • FOX SPORTS

Ready for Sunday Allgeier (toe) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest at Dallas, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Allgeier kicked off Week 8 prep as a non-participant due to a toe injury, but he was able to log back-to-back limited sessions to end it, which was enough to get the all-clear for Sunday's matchup. He'll be welcoming back Jeremiyah Love (ankle) to the Cardinals backfield after a two-game absence, so the breakdown of reps between those two and potentially Bam Knight remains to be seen.

OCTOBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

Limited Thursday Allgeier (toe) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact After Allgeier sat out Wednesday's session due to a toe injury, his ability to mix into drills one day later generally is a good sign as the Cardinals go through Week 8 prep. Friday's practice report will unveil if Allgeier enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's contest at Dallas, and also whether or not rookie RB Jeremiyah Love has a chance to put an end to a two-game absence. Currently, Bam Knight is the only healthy backfield option on Arizona's active roster.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

DNP on Wednesday Allgeier (toe) didn't practice Wednesday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact Allgeier wasn't present for the media-access portion of Wednesday's session, and a toe injury was the reason for his absence. Fellow RB Jeremiyah Love (ankle) returned to drills Wednesday as a limited participant, so question marks abound in the Cardinals backfield as the team kicks off Week 8 prep.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Not spotted Wednesday Allgeier was not present during the portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact It's unclear if Allgeier is dealing with a health concern or merely getting the day off, but Wednesday's practice report will reveal as much. Fellow RB Jeremiyah Love (ankle) is returning as a limited participant to begin Week 8 prep, throwing the Cardinals backfield in a bit of flux.

OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Outproduced by Knight again Allgeier rushed eight times for 19 yards and caught all three of his targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 30-16 loss to the Broncos.

Impact For a second consecutive game, Allgeier led the Cardinals in carries in the absence of Jeremiyah Love (ankle) but was far less efficient on the ground than Bam Knight. Allgeier has 57 rushing yards on 26 carries (2.2 YPC) during this two-game span compared to 128 rushing yards on 22 carries (5.8 YPC) for Knight over the same stretch. Love should reclaim his spot as the top option in Arizona's backfield once he's cleared to return, and even if that doesn't happen in Week 8 against the Cowboys, Allgeier could start to cede more opportunities to Knight if Allgeier remains inefficient.

Impact Love is set to miss a second consecutive game while working through a lingering ankle injury. Allgeier logged 18 carries in Week 6 against the Rams, but he turned that into only 38 carries while adding one catch (on two targets) for 10 yards. Knight, on the the other hand, was more efficient, turning 17 touches into 98 yards. It could be a 50-50 split in the Cardinals backfield for Sunday's contest against a Broncos defense that gives up 139.8 rushing yards per game, which is second-worst in the NFL behind the Cowboys (149.8).

OCTOBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

Does little with 19 touches Allgeier rushed 18 times for 38 yards and caught one of two targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 18-16 win over the Rams.

Impact Allgeier racked up 19 touches in the absence of Jeremiyah Love (ankle), but the former struggled to find running room and was outplayed by third-string running back Bam Knight, who turned 17 touches into 98 yards in Arizona's unlikely victory. Allgeier's season averaged dipped below 3.0 yards per carry with Sunday's inefficient outing. Love would likely reclaim the lead role if he returns in Week 7 against the Broncos, and Knight could also earn touches at Allgeier's expense moving forward in a crowded Cardinals backfield that may also welcome James Conner (foot) back from injured reserve in the coming weeks.

OCTOBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Set for lead role in Week 6 Allgeier is poised for a leading role out of the Cardinals backfield Sunday at the Rams with Jeremiyah Love (ankle) sidelined in Week 6, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Impact Despite Love being active for each of the first five contests of the season, Allgeier's snap share ranged from 36 to 64 percent weekly, and he averaged 9.4 touches for 32.6 yards from scrimmage per game while scoring one rushing TD. The overall workload thus will increase with Love out, and Allgeier's primary competition for RB reps will be Bam Knight, who has just three carries in 2026.

OCTOBER 16 • ROTOWIRE

Three carries in blowout loss Allgeier rushed three times for seven yards and caught both of his targets for nine yards during Sunday's 45-21 loss to the Lions.

Impact Allgeier was on the field for 32 offensive snaps, but he only had five touches in the contest. In comparison, rookie running back Jeremiyah Love turned 12 carries into 22 yards over his 34 offensive snaps in the defeat. Allgeier has rushed 35 times for 119 yards and a touchdown while reeling in all 12 of his targets for 44 yards over five contests this season, and he remains a valuable insurance policy for fantasy managers with Love on their roster.
