Huddle Up: Allgeier has been one of the better backup running backs in the NFL over his four seasons, and he saw a heavy volume of carries in his rookie season, notching 1,035 yards with the Falcons in 2022. However, his carries and opportunities have lessened with the arrival of Bijan Robinson in the Falcons' backfield. Allgeier now links up with the Arizona Cardinals, where he'll vie for a starting opportunity. For fantasy football, opportunity is king for running backs, and Allgeier has shown glimpses of efficiency and touchdown-scoring ability. Allgeier's fantasy value is still a bit up in the air, but he should be ahead of the pack in Arizona as a mid-range RB2 with upside.

Huddle Up: The team is expected to move on from J.J. McCarthy, or at least challenge him with a competition from a veteran who has won in this league. The team is casting a wide net at the position, and they are likely kicking themselves for letting Sam Darnold walk out the door.

Huddle Up: Allgeier has been one of the better backup running backs in the NFL over his four seasons, and he saw a heavy volume of carries in his rookie season, notching 1,035 yards with the Falcons in 2022. However, his carries and opportunities have lessened with the arrival of Bijan Robinson in the Falcons' backfield. Set to hit free agency in March, Allgeier is clearly looking for a starting opportunity. For fantasy football, opportunity is king for running backs, and Allgeier has shown glimpses of efficiency and touchdown-scoring ability. Pay attention to his landing spot come free agency, as Allgeier's fantasy value is directly tied to where he ends up in 2026.

Huddle Up: Pitts has entrenched himself as a top-two target in the Falcons passing game. As such, pairing that with the arrival of new head coach Kevin Stefanski, he now finds himself firmly entrenched in the TE1 conversation for 2026.

Huddle Up: Cousins, who turns 38 in August, will have suitors, and he'll be a midrange QB2 in fantasy in probably all of those places.

Huddle Up: Last season, Pitts had by far his best season since his rookie campaign in 2021, finishing as 2025's TE2 in fantasy. Pitts set career highs in targets (118), receptions (88) and touchdowns (5), leading the Falcons to keep him in the fold with the franchise tag for 2026. Thanks to his breakout season, it was likely that Pitts would receive the franchise tag and not hit the open market. Looking forward to 2026, Pitts' slightly unstable production over the last few seasons leads some to undervalue him for fantasy. Now with some security as a top-two target on the Falcons next to Drake London, Pitts is a solid TE1 with upside in fantasy drafts.

Huddle Up: Penix is a midrange QB2 with a cloud of questions. They're expected to move on from Kirk Cousins, which means the team could look to bring in a veteran that could push or overtake Penix, who has been injury prone in his collegiate and professional career.

Huddle Up: Cousins has been attached to several teams that need quarterback help in 2026. He is likely to get a chance to start somewhere, so he is worth keeping tabs on.

Huddle Up: Cousins is expected to be released this offseason, but fantasy players should monitor the situation to see if the Falcons decide to keep him. He could compete with Michael Penix Jr. for the starting job if he returns but will only be a No. 2 fantasy quarterback if he plays.

Huddle Up: Cousins just restructured his contract, and recently he said he feels good wanted to play in 2026. It just appears that will be in another uniform, and it's uncertain if he'll be a starter or a backup.

Huddle Up: Robinson topped 2,000 yards from scrimmage in 2025, surpassing 1,400 yards rushing for the second consecutive season while adding a career-high 820 receiving yards. Robinson is as versatile as any back in the NFL, and he will be in the mix to be the No. 1 overall pick in fantasy drafts in 2026.

Huddle Up: Penix will be a QB2 option in fantasy with some questions. He has talent around him and a new offensive-minded coach coming in. He just has shown the propensity for injury his entire college and pro career.

Huddle Up: Pitts had a strong end to the 2025 season and is scheduled to be a free agent this offseason. There is a chance that he receives the franchise tag, so fantasy players should monitor the situation. He should have a solid role in the passing game no matter where he plays in 2026 and can be a No. 1 tight end in most fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Penix remains up in the air for his role with the Falcons in 2026. It will depend on what the team does with Kirk Cousins, but hopes are high if he is healthy and working with new head coach Kevin Stefanski. Free agency will clear things up in terms of his stock as a fantasy option in 2026.

Huddle Up: Pitts came on late to finish near the top of the overall TE rankings, though that was heavily influenced by his huge game against the Buccaneers, not to mention a number of injuries to would-be top performers like Brock Bowers, Sam LaPorta and Tucker Kraft. No matter where Pitts suits up next season, he figures to be a risk/reward selection given his up-and-down play.

Huddle Up: The restructure could make it easier to move him, but he could wind up opening the season as the starter with Michael Penix Jr. recovering from knee surgery. If Cousins is a starter on a roster, he'll be a QB2 option in fantasy.

Huddle Up: Pitts had one of his best seasons in the NFL in 2025 and is scheduled to be a free agent this offseason. The Falcons will likely look to try to keep Pitts and could use the franchise tag on him. Pitts will be a starter no matter where he plays in 2026 and will be a No. 1 tight end in fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: London continued his strong play this season and has become one of the top receivers in the NFL. He should be considered a No. 1 receiver in all fantasy leagues next season and will likely be selected in one of the first few rounds of drafts.

Huddle Up: Allgeier will be a free agent this offseason, so fantasy players will need to see if he will return to the Falcons or join a new team. He may not be able to find a starting job but likely will have a solid role for a team in 2026. He can be a No. 3 or No. 4 running back in fantasy leagues depending on his situation.

Huddle Up: Robinson received his normal workload but was not able to find much running room against the Saints defense. He was one of the top running backs in the NFL this season and should be one of the top options in fantasy leagues next season. He will be a weekly starting option in all leagues in 2026.

Huddle Up: Cousins took over the starting job in November after Michael Penix Jr. suffered his injury and threw seven touchdowns and one interception in his last four games. He remains under contract with the Falcons, but it is not known if he will be with the team when the 2026 season starts. There is a chance that he starts for a team next season but would only be a No. 2 quarterback in fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: In nine games this season, Cousins has thrown for 1,541 passing yards with nine touchdowns and four interceptions. He should only be a starting option in two-quarterback fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Pitts had been listed as questionable on the injury report after logging three limited practice sessions during the week. He can be viewed as a low-end TE1 option in fantasy leagues, since he has seen an increase in fantasy value while Kirk Cousins has served as Atlanta's starting quarterback.

Huddle Up: London had been listed as questionable on the injury report after being a limited participant in all three of the Falcons' practice sessions held during the week. He is Atlanta's main receiving threat and can be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: London had been listed as questionable on the injury report after logging three limited practice sessions during the week. He is Atlanta's main receiving threat and can be a starting option in all fantasy leagues if he is declared active.

Huddle Up: Pitts had been listed as questionable on the injury report after being a limited participant in all three of Atlanta's practice sessions held during the week. He has seen an increased role in the Falcons' offense with QB Kirk Cousins starting and can be viewed as a low-end TE1 option in fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Pitts has been on the injury report for several weeks because of the injury but has not missed any time. He has become a big part of the passing game during the second half of the season and should be a No. 1 tight end in all leagues if active.

Huddle Up: London has been dealing with the injury for multiple weeks but has been able to play and should be in uniform for Week 18. He is the main option in the passing game for the Falcons and will be a starting option in all leagues if active.
