Alexander Mattison vs Tyler AllgeierWho should you start in 2026 fantasy football?

Tyler Allgeier is the better fantasy start for 2026, averaging 6.8 PPG to Alexander Mattison's 5.3 in 2025. Full head to head breakdown below.

The Bottom Line

Tyler Allgeier is the better fantasy play this season.

Tyler Allgeier has the edge, but it is not a runaway. The 1.5-PPG advantage is real (6.8 to 5.3), and Tyler Allgeier's 8 touchdowns show scoring upside. Alexander Mattison is the buy-low candidate if recent production has dipped, because the talent gap is smaller than the numbers suggest.

Low confidence: the production gap is narrow enough that weekly context matters more than the season line.

That ranking gap means Tyler Allgeier carries more trade value and a higher draft cost in 2026.

Alexander Mattison vs Tyler Allgeier: The Full Breakdown

Two running backs who will land on plenty of the same rosters in 2026. Alexander Mattison (Las Vegas Raiders) finished the 2025 season averaging 5.3 fantasy points per game in 14 games. Tyler Allgeier (Atlanta Falcons) came in at 6.8 PPG over 17 games. The gap is real but not insurmountable with the right matchup.

Tyler Allgeier carries a 1.5-point PPG advantage from the 2025 season. That baseline matters, but it is one input among several. Matchup difficulty, scoring trends, and injury reports move the needle week to week, which is why the best answer changes depending on when you are asking.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Alexander Mattison ran for 255 yards and 2 touchdowns; Tyler Allgeier posted 514 and 8. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.

One scheduling note: Alexander Mattison is off Week 10 and Tyler Allgeier Week 11. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in running back for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Both are in a similar trade value range. A straight swap would be fair in most leagues, with the tiebreaker going to whichever manager values schedule or bye week more. Dynasty outlook: Alexander Mattison (age 27) is approaching the age where RB production historically drops. Sell-high window is open. Tyler Allgeier (age 26) is approaching the age where RB production historically drops. Sell-high window is open.
