LaFleur: Jeremiyah Love tweaked other ankle Sunday

Jeremiyah Love

ARI Running Back #4

Player Stats

Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur said Jeremiyah Love tweaked his other ankle in Week 4’s loss to the Giants.

It’s been an odd 24 hours for Love, who was quoted after Sunday’s game saying this is shaping up to be the “longest year” of his career while also adding that he’s “tired” and would be willing to pass off work to Tyler Allgeier or Bam Knight in the event that he doesn’t think he can do what is being asked of him. As for this latest injury, LaFleur said the ankle injury isn’t the same one Love injured in the preseason, meaning he now has two ankle injuries to manage for the rest of the season. The Cardinals’ backfield was already proving hard to predict, and the latest quote from Love, coupled with the injury news, doesn’t exactly instill more confidence in him going forward. He draws a plus Week 5 matchup against the Lions, but should be treated as a fringe RB2/RB3 for now.

Jeremiyah Love

ARI Running Back #4

Jeremiyah Love said he told Cardinals coaches that Tyler Allgeier and Bam Knight were in better shape to play than he was in Week 4 against the Giants.

Love engaged in a long, candid conversation with Cardinals beat reporters after the game today, saying his snaps are being managed because he currently is “not able to go out there and do spectacular plays every single time.” Love said this is probably going to be the “longest year” of his life, and his preseason ankle injury is not the only thing he is dealing with. Love said his body is sometimes just “tired,” and that he would “probably just hinder the team” if he took on more work in his current state. He rhetorically asked, “why not put somebody else out there that’s playing better?” For those wondering, the Cardinals don’t go on bye until Week 14. They face the fantasy-friendly Lions defense in Week 5, which could help Love get his confidence back with an efficient performance.
Tyler Allgeier

ARI Running Back #22

Tyler Allgeier rushed eight times for 42 yards and a touchdown in the Cardinals’ Week 4 loss to the Giants, adding two receptions for seven yards.

One week after getting out-touched 26-6 by Jeremiyah Love, Allgeier got the situation back to “third and manageable” this week with his rookie backfield mate winning the handles war by a more modest score of 15-10. With the Cardinals spending most of the second half playing from behind, Allgeier was gobbling up snaps on third down and in the two-minute drill. That was coach Mike LaFleur’s explanation for his greater involvement. Allgeier’s score was a 22-yarder where the Cards’ line sprung a hole and Allgeier shed a few tackles. Cool stuff, though Allgeier remains a low-ceiling FLEX in this deficient offense, one dominated by target hogs Trey McBride and Michael Wilson.
Jeremiyah Love

ARI Running Back #4

Jeremiyah Love rushed 14 times for 63 yards in the Cardinals’ Week 4 loss to the Giants.

Love “added” a -8 yard reception. One week after seeming to seize complete command of the Cardinals’ backfield with a 26-touch, 109-yard performance, Love out-touched Tyler Allgeier just 15-10. It was Allgeier who notched a 22-yard touchdown. Asked about it afterwards, coach Mike LaFleur lamely mentioned something about the Cardinals’ two-minute offense. Twitter doctors were claiming Love — who had only one fourth quarter touch — was dealing with some sort of injury, but we didn’t see it. Neither LaFleur nor Love made any mention of any kind of supposed issue after the game. We assume he will be fine ahead of a potential Week 5 shootout with the Lions.
Tyler Allgeier

ARI Running Back #22

Tyler Allgeier rushed two times for a loss of a yard in the Cardinals’ Week 3 loss to the 49ers, adding four receptions for 10 yards.

Allgeier lost nearly all high-value touches to Jeremiyah Love in Week 3, falling far behind the rookie in total opportunities and sinking further in total snaps. He saw 31 snaps to Love’s 55, seeing just six touches to Love’s 26. Allgeier’s most usage came in passing-down situations, catching four passes while pass-blocking was his most prominent role. Allgeier holds little standalone value with Love taking over the backfield; he could just be a useful bench hedge against an injury at this point.
Jeremiyah Love

ARI Running Back #4

Jeremiyah Love rushed 21 times for 90 yards in the Cardinals’ Week 3 loss to the 49ers, adding five receptions for 19 yards and a touchdown.

Love tallied a career-high 26 touches in Week 3, gashing the 49ers’ banged-up offensive line for over 100 total yards. The rookie out-snapped Tyler Allgeier 55-to-31 while also out-touching him 26-to-6. Nearly all the high-value touches went to Love, who scored on a play-action pass at the one-yard line. The path to true workhorse usage is wide open for Love after a monstrous workload and productive fantasy day against the 49ers. He is a high-end RB2 for Week 4 against the Giants.
Tyler Allgeier

ARI Running Back #22

Tyler Allgeier rushed five times for 10 yards in the Cardinals’ Week 2 loss to the Seahawks, adding two receptions for nine yards.

Allgeier failed to generate more than five yards on a touch all night. Rookie RB Jeremiyah Love fared slightly better, but the Seahawks’ defense simply bottled up the Cardinals’ backfield. Allgeier is a capable back but needs help from his offensive environment to generate usable fantasy stat lines. He can only be viewed as a touchdown-dependent FLEX against the 49ers next week, although he remains a worthwhile bench stash.
Jeremiyah Love

ARI Running Back #4

Jeremiyah Love rushed nine times for 29 yards in the Cardinals’ Week 2 loss to the Seahawks, adding three receptions for 16 yards.

On Friday, Cardinals coach Mike LaFleur said Love and RB Tyler Allgeier are going to rotate this season. Ultimately, they did in Week 2, but Love was in for the first series, running the ball on three of the Cardinals’ first six plays. The rookie running back looks spry and explosive, yet there was simply no room to run against the Seahawks’ elite defense. Although Love is still splitting snaps with RB Tyler Allgeier, Love out-touched him 12-7 this week. Love can be viewed as a low-end RB2/FLEX next week against the 49ers.
Jeremiyah Love

ARI Running Back #4

Cardinals HC Mike LaFleur reiterated that Jeremiyah Love and Tyler Allgeier are “gonna rotate” this season.

LaFleur is again insisting that Love, the No. 3 overall pick of this year’s draft, and 2026 free agent signee Allgeier will rotate in the backfield, while adding that it “is a long season.” Love saw 13 touches in last week’s win over the Chargers, while Allgeier had 19, and was out-snapped by Allgeier 41 to 32. A similar rotation going forward would put a damper on Love’s week-to-week upside after the rookie spent most of the offseason going as a top-30 pick in fantasy drafts, but he’ll maintain a decent value as long as he continues to see double-digit touches. Both Love and Allgeier will be hard to trust as anything more than fringe RB2/RB3 this week against the Seahawks.
Jeremiyah Love

ARI Running Back #4

Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer reports Arizona’s plan is to be “judicious about running up mileage” on RB Jeremiyah Love.

Breer believes the split from Week 1 is “probably a good window into how they’ll manage” Love’s rookie year. Not exactly what we wanted to hear. Breer also mentions that James Connor could “help lighten the load” when he comes back. Love had 13 touches in Week 1. It sounds like this backfield will run by committee even after spending the No. 3 overall pick on Love.
Jeremiyah Love

ARI Running Back #4

Cardinals HC Mike LaFleur said Jeremiyah Love wasn’t on a snap count in Week 1’s win over the Chargers.

Love was out-snapped 41 to 32 by Tyler Allgeier, who also handled 17 rush attempts compared to Love’s 11. While there was some concern over whether or not Love was on a snap count due to his ankle injury, LaFleur said the usage between the two backs was based on game flow. Love still managed to see 15 opportunities (11 rushes, 4 targets) in the win, but as long as he and Allgeier continue to split work, he will be hard to trust as anything more than a fringe RB2/RB3. Next week’s game against a stout Seahawks defense makes both backs risky bets.

Patriots brought in free agent RB Jamaal Williams for a workout.

The Pats brought in an interesting name to work out for the backfield this week, bringing in former Packers, Lions, and Saints running back Jamaal Williams. The 31-year-old last appeared in the NFL for the Saints in 2024, tallying 164 rushing yards that season. He had a career year for the Lions in 2022, totaling 1,000 yards on the ground and leading the league in rushing touchdowns. The Patriots are looking for some depth behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson; there is no indication Williams will sign, but he will be practice squad depth if he does.

Johnson cites that his “personal and family priorities” have changed in his post about retiring. The stalwart Eagles right tackle made two first-team All-Pro appearances and three second teams, along with six Pro Bowls. Markel Bell started in his stead in Week 4 and should be expected to get the playing time at right tackle going forward.
