Fantasy Football Injury Alert: Jeremiyah Love Placed on IR; Tyler Allgeier Becomes THE Top Week 9 Waiver Wire Add
Arizona rookie RB Jeremiyah Love is headed to IR with a high-ankle sprain. Discover the impact on fantasy lineups and top waiver wire replacements like Tyler Allgeier.
The Arizona Cardinals' rookie running back Jeremiyah Love has been placed on Injured Reserve due to a high-ankle sprain, ruling him out for four to five weeks. This setback comes at a crucial time for fantasy football managers as the regular season reaches its critical phase. Love's absence significantly impacts the Cardinals' backfield, providing an opportunity for waiver wire managers to add Tyler Allgeier.
In a recent Week 8 game, Allgeier stepped up and delivered an impressive performance, rushing for 147 yards and scoring two touchdowns. With Love out, Allgeier has become the top priority for Week 9 waiver wire additions, making him an RB2 or high-end flex choice. However, Cardinals running back Bam Knight, who was already dealing with concussion protocol, is more of a secondary stash or speculative handcuff option.
