Commanders target 'thumper' RB for 2026

March 3, 2026 · Yahoo Sport

The Washington Commanders are looking for a true early-down workhorse to replace Austin Ekeler, with Tyler Allgeier emerging as a prime target.

Only Jacory Croskey-Merritt remains under contract for 2026, prompting Washington to prioritize a powerful lead back. Sources indicate the team desires a 'thumper' to fix the run game, making Allgeier an ideal fit due to his experience in outside zone schemes and affordable contract value.
