BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 13% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Atlanta head coach and play caller Arthur Smith deployed a two-man backfield at the onset of the Falcons' season opener, while Allgeier was limited to spectator status as an inactive.
Damien Williams was involved initially during the matchup before he suffered a rib injury. This opened a cavernous runway for Cordarrelle Patterson to stockpile 22 carries, and finish sixth among all backs in rushing yardage (120). He also caught three of his five targets from Marcus Mariota, while amassing 16 receiving yards.
However, Allgeier was infused into a backfield rotation with Patterson when Atlanta visited the Rams, as both backs carried 10 times during the matchup. Patterson generated (40/4.1 yards per attempt), while Allgeier produced 30 yards (3.0 yards per attempt). Even though Allgeier's output was uninspiring, his expanded involvement (31.2% snap share) is a promising development.
Allgeier could maintain his role in a timeshare with Patterson, as Williams has been placed on injured reserve. Allgeier’s workload could also expand even further as the season progresses, which provides the incentive for stashing him on your rosters this week.
