Could the Falcons’ Tyler Allgeier actually end up being the most impactful rookie RB? FrontOffice33 | DirtyBirds
in Tampa Bay. In Atlanta, it shouldn’t take Allgeier much for him to leap past veteran journeyman Damien Williams on the Falcons’ depth chart. This perhaps clears a pathway for Allgeier to be immediately productive. Opportunity is half the battle and among running backs, where touches mean everything, it’s sometimesWilliams also joined the Falcons earlier this offseason to help complete a totally revamped running back room . Williams signed a one-year contract worth $1.6 million.
Allgeier is no stranger to heavy workloads. The Youngstown, Ohio native was a workhorse in 2021, handling 304 touches for the BYU Cougars. Allgeier totaled career-highs in yards gained from scrimmage and touchdowns . Allgeier’s advanced vision also makes him an ideal scheme fit in Smith’s zone-based rushing attack. He’ll be able to handle whatever Atlanta throws his way.
Falcons Head Coach Arthur Smith is hoping to oversee a more successful running game in 2022. Last year’s Falcons fielded the league’s 31st-ranked rushing attack, averaging just 85.4 rushing yards per contest. Only the Houston Texans were worse. This was unacceptable to a coach like Smith, who previously coached Derrick Henry during his 2,000-yard season in Tennessee.
The Falcons will attempt to lean on their running game in hopes of removing the pressure off the passing game’s shoulders.
