The 2025 NFL trade deadline is rapidly approaching, and the running back position is always highly coveted. This time of year, some key backs on playoff-bound teams are injured, underperforming, or never existed in the first place. And Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier could potentially be traded, but only if the right return emerges.
To be clear: if the Falcons remain stubborn in competing this season, riding out the final year of his rookie deal is ideal. Unfortunately, the offensive inconsistencies leave the likelihood of a playoff birth pretty low. Capitalizing on Allgeier's value now, rather than letting him walk in free agency, might be the right move.
