Should You Start or Sit Tyler Allgeier in Week 14?
Last week against the Chargers is basically spot-on with what we are expecting from Allgeier these days. He was on the field for 31.2% of Atlanta’s offensive snaps in the loss, not drastically different than his season rate (27.2%), and he got his hands on the ball nine times.
He did virtually nothing with his chances on Sunday (22 yards), and that is why he’s struggled to hold stand-alone value when playing alongside Bijan Robinson. The versatility in his profile has dried up (37 carries against two targets over his past five games), and that makes him an awfully tough sell, even in deeper formats.
When looking at the Kirk Cousins Bowl this week, the outlook doesn’t paint an optimistic picture. Through 13 weeks, the Vikings are one of four defenses allowing under four yards per carry to running backs, making a repeat of Week 12 very possible. If you’re playing Allgeier, you’re assuming a lot of risk with little payoff — that’s not exactly the type of player I make a habit of rostering, let alone playing.
