Should You Start or Sit Tyler Allgeier in Week 15?
Allgeier scored from six yards out on Atlanta’s first drive last week, his first score in a month, and he ran hard against a strong Vikings defense (nine carries for 63 yards).
The performance was good to see and is a reminder that he can be Zach Charbonnet-like should he be given the opportunity, but we aren’t in a position to project that right now with Bijan Robinson at full strength.
His proximity to a top-20 role is why he needs to be rostered, but you’re not playing him as long as the RB1 is at full strength.
