Tyler Allgeier leads Cardinals backfield in Week 1 against Chargers
Summary

Tyler Allgeier led the Arizona Cardinals backfield with 17 carries for 61 yards in their Week 1 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. He also added two receptions for nine yards. Allgeier's increased role was influenced by Jeremiyah Love's questionable status due to a high-ankle sprain. The Cardinals are set to face the Seattle Seahawks in Week 2, where Allgeier's performance will be crucial, but the matchup may not favor him as a strong fantasy option.
