The Cardinals will retain James Conner for 2026. He will have a new teammate in the backfield for 2026, however.
Arizona has agreed to terms with Tyler Allgeier, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. This will be a two-year, $12.25MM pact. Allgeier will again find himself as part of a running back tandem after being in such a situation with the Falcons.
More to come…

Seems like a serious bargain for a very good back who happened to be teammates with an elite back. I wonder if this means Benson’s health outlook is grim.
This is a sneaky good signing imo.
This kid was an I believe 1,000 yard rusher as a rookie before they drafted Bijan the next year and is a really solid big back.
He’s the perfect guy to replace James Conner one day imo.
Agreed. That was a year we had ridder awful coaching and crapshoot o line as well
Gonna miss him in Atlanta he did so much dirty work and hard ass runs for our team. Wish him the best.
He’s gonna be missed for sure….that contract seems pretty cheap. I thought he’d get double that.
Not a bad bag though. Connor is still the guy
Boy, during the Harbaugh sweepstakes, I remember a few Falcons fans here telling me that Atlanta’s situation was “much more desirable” than the Giants, citing Allegier as one of the reasons. Now he’s gone. Falcons with Bijan (likely wanting an extension), Pitts on a franchise tag, London seeing dollar signs after Pierce’s signing, no 1st rounder, and a massive question mark at QB. Harbaugh made the right choice.
True, London is gonna get PAID.
And it was Kirk Cousins who made him a 1,000 yard WR for the first time and ensured that payday would happen.
Yeah, if Pierce got that much money, London has to be doing cartwheels today. He might be wishing for Cousins, though, to throw him the ball!
the TD vulture scores!
