Bijan Robinson is having another big game.

But while that's happening the Atlanta Falcons' RB depth chart might be getting thinned out a bit.

Tyler Allgeier went down with an injury during the second half of Sunday Night Football against the San Francisco 49ers.

Allgeier is a reliable RB2 behind Robinson, but his fourth-quarter injury had a chance to mess that up a bit.

He went down at the end of a play with about 10 minutes left in the game.

Trainers attended to Allgeier on the field.

The good news: Allgeier walked off the field on his own power.

The other good news: Trainers returned his helmet to him.

It didn't appear on the TV broadcast that Allgeier had a ton of limp.

The Falcons could just ride Robinson to the finish line, but it does seem like Allgeier will be OK to come back into the game if the opportunity is given.

And how's this for better news?

Three plays later, Allgeier was back in the football game for a crucial 4th-and-1. Guess he's doing just fine.
