Tyler Allgeier Totals 85 Yards In Week 8
2 years agoAtlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier played a critical role in the team's 37-34 Week 8 win over the Carolina Panthers. The rookie running back had 14 rushing attempts and three receptions in the win. He had 85 scrimmage yards in the game, averaging five yards per touch. While the former BYU star struggled on the ground, averaging only 2.8 yards per rushing attempt, Allgeier had a 25-yard touchdown reception in the third quarter. The rookie split time in the backfield with Caleb Huntley, yet he scored 16 half-point PPR fantasy points in Week 8. If Cordarrelle Patterson (knee) doesn't play next week, Allgeier is a solid flex option against the Los Angeles Chargers.
