In the Falcons' Monday night victory over the Eagles, Tyler Allgeier and Bijan Robinson showcased a notable shift in their usage compared to Week 1. While Robinson received the majority of touches, Allgeier also made a significant impact with his efficient performance. This analysis highlights their respective contributions and the implications for fantasy football.

Atlanta Falcons' offensive coordinator Zac Robinson has indicated that Tyler Allgeier will continue to have a significant role in the backfield alongside Bijan Robinson during the upcoming season. This echoes last year's dynamics, where Allgeier's presence limited Robinson's fantasy production despite his talent and high draft status. As the Falcons transition to a new offensive system, there are questions about how Robinson's usage will change, particularly in terms of carries versus receptions.

Tyler Allgeier, the second-year Atlanta Falcons running back, caught a screen pass and turned it into a 75-yard touchdown in the second quarter of the game against the Chicago Bears. The play was set up with downfield blocks by right guard Chris Lindstrom and receiver Scotty Miller. This was the longest play of Allgeier's career and gave him a career-best in receiving yards.

Falcons RB Bijan Robinson had a disappointing Week 15 performance, finishing with seven carries for 11 yards and one catch for three yards. His snap rate was his lowest in a healthy game all season. Fantasy owners should still consider starting him in Week 16 against the Colts' weak RB defense.

Falcons RB Bijan Robinson has seen his fantasy production affected by the involvement of fellow RB Tyler Allgeier. Robinson's touch opportunities have decreased over the past four games, making it difficult to project his fantasy value each week. However, he has a favorable matchup against the Cardinals in Week 10.

Tyler Allgeier operated as the Falcons' workhorse RB in Tampa Bay on Sunday, with RB Bijan Robinson barely playing due to an illness. Allgeier struggled to get anything going on the ground, totaling just 59 yards on 21 carries. He added 53 yards on three catches, most of that coming on a 46-yard catch and run in the fourth quarter. We'll look for further updates on Robinson but would expect Allgeier to be back in his prior role next week. He averaged 12.5 carries and 1.7 targets over the first six games of the season. Week 8 brings a tough matchup vs. the Titans' ninth-ranked RB defense.

Bijan Robinson had an impressive performance in the Falcons' loss to the Jaguars, racking up 137 total yards and showcasing his skill set. Tyler Allgeier had a quieter game with only 7 carries for 16 yards. Robinson is a recommended start for next week's game against the Texans.

Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson will not be playing in today's game against the Lions due to a thigh injury. As a result, Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier will be responsible for all of Atlanta's running back duties.

David Montgomery, running back for the Detroit Lions, is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against Atlanta due to a thigh injury. Montgomery did not practice all week and is not expected to play. The Lions will keep the door open with a 'doubtful' designation in case his thigh bruise improves dramatically. The game between the Falcons and Lions will feature rookie running backs Jahmyr Gibbs and Bijan Robinson, but Craig Reynolds and Tyler Allgeier may also see significant carries.

In Week 2's win against the Packers, Falcons RB Bijan Robinson had a standout performance with 19 rushing attempts for 124 yards and 4 receptions for 48 yards. Teammate RB Tyler Allgeier also had involvement in the running game with 16 carries for 48 yards, but did not see any targets in the passing game. The Falcons' ground-and-pound approach is expected to continue in the next game against the Lions, making both Robinson and Allgeier viable fantasy options.
