Week 1 Backfield Split

Jeremiyah Love and Tyler Allgeier Expected to Split Week 1 Backfield Touches

Arizona Cardinals rookie running back Jeremiyah Love is expected to play in Week 1 due to a high-ankle sprain suffered in the preseason. However, it is unclear how this will be distributed among the team's other players. Since the injury, Tyler Allgeier has been listed as the RB1 on the team’s unofficial depth chart. This could result in a 50/50 split in Week1. Love is predicted to eventually take over this backfield and handle the majority of touches. Allgeiers excels at the goal line and is expected for Love to dominate this week's goal-line work.
