"Tyler Allgeier was very much in there at the end of the game helping chew clock and keep the ball out of harm's way.
He's going to get the dirty work and be the short-yardage guy while Jeremiah Love is the home-run threat. Mike LaFleur is huge on keeping guys fresh and not running one back into the ground, so look for both to continue to get work. Tip Reiman's eventual return (around Week 5) as the blocking tight end / honorary offensive lineman should open more holes for both Love and Allgeier. Injuries aside, Drake expects a healthy split with Allgeier still involved as a workhorse piece."
"What Drake is really looking forward to is when Tip Reiman can come back — the blocking tight end they call the honorary offensive lineman. If he can come back healthy, he can open things up in the run game and help the offensive line take the next step. He won't show up in the stat sheet, but he'll show up on the All-22 getting it done in the trenches and opening holes for Jeremiah Love and Tyler Allgeier, and he can help in the pass game by keeping guys away from Jacoby a little longer. He could come back by Week 5. Unsung hero who can change this offense for the better once he's back."
