Tyler Allgeier set to take larger role after Jeremiyah Love injury
Summary

Jeremiyah Love of the Arizona Cardinals aggravated an ankle injury during Week 8 and is expected to miss 2-3 weeks. This development increases the roles of Tyler Allgeier and Bam Knight in the Cardinals' backfield. In the past three games, Allgeier has outperformed Knight significantly, recording 204 rushing yards compared to Knight's 136. With Love sidelined, Allgeier is projected to handle about 70% of the team's rushing snaps and is expected to be the primary option in the red zone, although the Cardinals have struggled to convert those opportunities into touchdowns.
