Loses roster spot
Gallman was cut from the Chiefs' practice squad Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Analysis: Gallman has been with the team since Oct. 12, but he has yet to be elevated to the active roster. With the addition of Melvin Gordon to the practice squad, Gallman had become expendable. He'll work to find an opportunity elsewhere.

Joins Chiefs' practice squad
Kansas City signed Gallman to its practice squad Wednesday, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
Analysis: Gallman has yet to see game action in 2022 after accumulating 125 all-purpose yards on 29 touches in 2021. As long as Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Isiah Pacheco and Jerick McKinnon remain healthy, Gallman probably won't be elevated to the active roster.

Claimed by Vikings
The Vikings have claimed Gallman off waivers from the Falcons.
Analysis: The move follows the placement of fellow running back Alexander Mattison on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Gallman thus gives the Vikings added backfield depth behind top back Dalvin Cook. Also currently on the team's active roster is RB Kene Nwangwu, while A.J. Rose is on Minnesota's practice squad.

Let go by Falcons
Gallman was waived by Atlanta on Saturday.
Analysis: Gallman was a healthy scratch in Atlanta's Week 13 game against the Buccaneers and played 45 offensive snaps over six games for the Falcons. The team signed Qadree Ollison from the practice squad to replace Gallman at third-string running.

Healthy scratch Week 13
Gallman (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Gallman played five offensive snaps and had four carries for 19 yards last week against the Jaguars, but he'll be a healthy scratch for Sunday's contest. Qadree Ollison was elevated from the practice squad and is active in Gallman's place.

Four touches in Week 12
Gallman rushed four times for 19 yards during Sunday's 21-14 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Gallman has been a non-factor in back-to-back weeks after his season-high performance -- 17 touches for 76 total yards -- in Week 10. Despite being out-touched by Mike Davis 8-4, Gallman was still able to match his production with 19 total yards. However, Davis' involvement in the passing game likely still solidifies him as the No. 2 fantasy commodity in the Falcons' backfield, but neither Gallman or Davis appear to be viable options when Cordarrelle Patterson is healthy.

Takes back seat in loss
Gallman rushed one time for negative three yards during Thursday's 25-0 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: After a season-high performance in Week 10, coach Arthur Smith made it clear that Gallman was still third on the depth chart at running back behind Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) and Mike Davis. However, Patterson was ruled out for the matchup with New England due to a sprained ankle, which elevated Gallman to the No. 2 spot. Nonetheless, he was still a nonfactor in the Falcons' Week 11 loss, and, surprisingly, Qadree Ollison led Atlanta's backfield with nine carries for 34 yards. Fantasy…read more

Remains third on depth chart
Falcons head coach Arthur Smith said that Gallman remains third on the depth chart at running back behind Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) and Mike Davis, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Smith went on to say that Gallman's season-high 52 percent snap share and season-high 15 carries in last week's 43-3 loss to the Cowboys was mostly a byproduct of a blowout, in addition to the fact that the Falcons faced a quick turnaround for Week 11 with a Thursday night game versus New England. With 23 snaps, Gallman outpaced both Patterson (15) and Davis (20), but Gallman won't be a lock to lead the way for the Atlanta backfield even if Patterson -- who is listed as questionable for…read more

Team-high 55 rushing yards
Gallman rushed 15 times for 55 yards and caught one of two targets for 21 yards during Sunday's 43-3 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: After being a healthy scratch in back-to-back contests, Gallman paced Atlanta's backfield during the blowout loss to Dallas on Sunday. The increased role likely was due to the game being out of reach, but it's certainly worth monitoring, as Mike Davis' production has been significantly reduced since Atlanta's Week 6 bye. If Gallman can overtake Davis on the depth chart, he would be worthy of consideration in deeper leagues due to Matt Ryan's usage of running backs in the passing game. However,…read more

Inactive Sunday
Gallman (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game at New Orleans, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Gallman will be a healthy scratch for the second consecutive contest. Qadree Ollison was elevated from the practice squad for Sunday and will serve as Atlanta's reserve tailback behind Mike Davis and Cordarrelle Patterson.

Healthy scratch Sunday
Gallman (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Panthers.
Analysis: Gallman saw action in the past three games for Atlanta, totaling eight carries for 33 yards while failing to catch his lone target. He'll be a healthy scratch for Sunday, leaving Cordarrelle Patterson and Mike Davis as the team's two available tailbacks.

Not part of offensive game plan
Gallman played three offensive snaps and rushed one time for two yards during Sunday's 30-28 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: For the second straight game, Gallman rushed just one time for two yards and played just three offensive snaps. Barring an injury, the 27-year-old running back is not a viable fantasy option.

Makes 2021 debut
Gallman rushed six times for 29 yards and didn't catch his only target during Sunday's 34-30 loss to Washington.
Analysis: Gallman was a healthy scratch for the Falcons' first three contests this season. However, the 27-year-old returned to action Week 4 and finished second on the team in rushing yards, but he still was out-touched by both Cordarrelle Patterson and Mike Davis. It's unclear what Gallman's role will be moving forward.

Sidelined again Sunday
Gallman (coach's decision) is listed as inactive Sunday against the Giants in New York, Scott Bair of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Gallman has opened his tenure with the Falcons as a healthy scratch in each of the team's first three games of the campaign. Coach Arthur Smith seems comfortable entrusting Mike Davis and Cordarrelle Patterson with the majority of the backfield reps, which could mean Gallman needs an injury to one of the two to get on the field.

Healthy scratch again
Gallman (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 2 divisional matchup against the Buccaneers.
Analysis: The journeyman back will be a healthy scratch for the second time in as many games to open the season. Mike Davis and Cordarrelle Patterson once again should handle the bulk of backfield work for Atlanta against a notoriously stingy Buccaneers run defense.

Sitting Sunday
Gallman (coach's decision) is listed as inactive Sunday against the Eagles, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Gallman was a casualty of cut-down day in San Francisco, and even though he found a new home relatively quickly in Atlanta, his debut with the Falcons will have to wait. With Gallman in street clothes, Mike Davis will lead the team's backfield, while Cordarrelle Patterson handles change-of-pace duties.

Joins Falcons' backfield
The Falcons have signed Gallman.
Analysis: In a corresponding move, the team parted ways with fellow running back Qadree Ollison. As a result, Gallman quickly enters the Falcons' backup RB equation behind starter Mike Davis, with jack-of-all trades Cordarrelle Patterson also in the team's backfield mix. Meanwhile, Caleb Huntley and D'Onta Foreman are members of Atlanta's practice squad.

Cut by San Fran
Gallman was released by the 49ers on Tuesday, Chris Biderman of The Sacramento Bee reports.
Analysis: With Jeff Wilson not expected to be ready until midseason due to a torn meniscus, there was a path for Gallman to land on the 49ers' regular-season roster. However, the team instead is keeping JaMycal Hasty and Elijah Mitchell as the primary reserves behind Raheem Mostert and Trey Sermon. Gallman likely will garner interest on the free-agent market after averaging 4.6 yards per carry behind a shaky Giants offensive line last season.

Another strong showing
Gallman rushed 13 times for 60 yards in Sunday's 34-10 preseason win over the Raiders.
Analysis: Gallman turned in another strong performance to increase his roster bid heading into the regular season. His main competition, JaMycal Hasty, also put on a show (six carries for 55 yards and two touchdowns), so the 49ers will likely have a tough decision on their hands come roster cuts. Gallman is a bruiser between the tackles, and Hasty is more of a shifty, receiving type, so whoever makes the cut likely will be based on team need. Neither player is expected to have a large role on offense…read more

Strong showing in 49ers debut
Gallman rushed 15 times for 72 yards in Sunday's 15-10 preseason win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Gallman looked strong in his red and gold debut, flashing his north/south running style and gaining healthy chunks between the tackles. He did have an ugly drop on his lone target, but other than that it was a strong performance. The veteran tailback is competing for a backup job behind Raheem Mostert and Trey Sermon this preseason. Gallman will look to build on this outing when the 49ers take on the Raiders next Sunday.

Joins 49ers backfield
Gallman agreed to a contract with the 49ers on Wednesday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gallman set career highs in rushing yardage (682) and touchdowns (six) in 15 games for the Giants last season while adding 21 receptions for 114 yards. His increased profile in New York's offense was the result of top back Saquon Barkley (knee) missing most of the 2020 campaign with a torn ACL. With the 49ers, Gallman will compete for a depth role behind Raheem Mostert and Jeff Wilson, a context that doesn't provide the 26-year-old with a clear path to steady carries in 2021.

Escapes disastrous fumble
Gallman carried 11 times for 65 yards and was not targeted during Sunday's 23-19 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: Gallman averaged an impressive 5.9 yards per carry against a beatable Dallas front, but he didn't receive a heavy workload, despite playing from ahead for most of the game. He narrowly escaped a massive error in the final moments of the game when he fumbled in Giants territory but somehow managed to recover the ball from the bottom of the pile. Despite the blunder, it was one of Gallman's most productive performances in recent weeks, and he finishes the regular season with a surprising 792…read more

Totals 53 scrimmage yards
Gallman registered 27 yards on six carries while corralling both of his targets for 26 yards during Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: New York fell into a 20-3 first-half deficit, ushering the Giants into a pass-heavy game script that consisted of 41 Daniel Jones attempts to 12 total team carries. Gallman toted eight of the Giants' 11 RB touches, exceeding 50 scrimmage yards for the eighth time over his past nine appearances. With a total of six touchdowns since Week 7, Gallman has demonstrated a propensity for getting into the end zone. He's currently shouldering a four-game scoreless streak, however, as the Giants head into…read more

Just nine carries in losing effort
Gallman rushed nine times for 29 yards in Sunday's 20-6 loss to Cleveland. He was not targeted in the passing game.
Analysis: Gallman had been the Giants' workhorse with double-digit carries over the last seven weeks, but the team inexplicably moved away from him in the second half in favor of veteran Alfred Morris. There are currently no reports of the starting tailback suffering any sort of injury, so the decision is a curious one when you consider the alternative options (or lack thereof) at the position. Morris did perform well in his place (seven carries for 39 yards), but most of his damage was done on two draw…read more

Held in check as offense sputters
Gallman rushed 12 times for 57 yards and caught three of four targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 26-7 loss to Arizona.
Analysis: Gallman got 12 of the 17 carries by Giants running backs, but it was Dion Lewis who got the call from one yard out for New York's lone points of the afternoon. Though Gallman has gone two games without a touchdown after scoring six in his previous five games, he remains locked into the lead role in the Giants' backfield heading into a Week 15 matchup with the Browns.

Keeps offense moving
Gallman rushed the ball 16 times for 135 yards in Week 13 against the Seahawks.
Analysis: Gallman played a key role in the Giants' upset victory, recording the first 100-yard rushing effort of his career. Though he was vultured for a touchdown on each occasion by Alfred Morris, Gallman moved the team down the field on two separate drives in the third quarter with 60- and 23-yard runs. Gallman has now earned at least 15 touches in three consecutive games, and with Devonta Freeman's (ankle/hamstring/illness) status uncertain, he could maintain a prominent role in the offense for the…read more

Scores for fifth straight game
Gallman carried 24 times for 94 yards and a touchdown while losing three yards on three catches (five targets) during Sunday's 19-17 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Gallman plunged into the end zone from a yard out in the first quarter to extend his touchdown streak to five games. He surpassed 20 carries for the first time and, although he averaged just 3.9 yards per carry, he achieved a new season high in yardage thanks to the increased volume. Game flow permitting, Gallman should continue to play a large role on offense next Sunday against the Seahawks after Daniel Jones (hamstring) suffered an injury and is in danger of missing the contest.

Two trips to end zone
Gallman recorded 18 carries for 53 yards and two touchdowns in Week 10 against the Eagles. He added one reception for seven yards.
Analysis: Gallman wasn't particularly efficient, averaging only 2.9 yards per rush. His longest gain of the day came on the Giants' first offensive possession, when he ripped off a 17-yard run. However, the majority of his production came on a pair of trips to the end zone from one and two yards, respectively. With Devonta Freeman (ankle) recently placed on injured reserve, Gallman should serve as the Giants' lead back through Week 13. Next up, he and the Giants will be on a bye in Week 11.

Primed for more starts
Gallman is in line to serve as the Giants' lead back for at least two more games, after teammate Devonta Freeman (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Friday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
Analysis: Freeman was hoping to return for Sunday's game against the Eagles but instead will require a longer absence after he aggravated his ankle injury during Thursday's practice. Gallman played 53, 43 and 57 percent of offensive snaps the past three weeks, averaging 12.0 carries, 2.7 targets, 64.4 total yards and 1.0 touchdown per game. He isn't likely to continue scoring a TD each week, but Gallman does appear to be the lead back ahead of Alfred Morris and Dion Lewis.

Solid outing in win over Washington
Gallman registered 68 rushing yards and one touchdown on 14 carries, adding a nine-yard catch during Sunday's 23-20 win against Washington.
Analysis: Gallman logged double-digit carries and a touchdown for a third consecutive outing during Sunday's victory, while his 4.9 yards-per-carry average from Week 9 marks his best of the three-game stretch (3.5 YPC average Weeks 7 and 8 combined). The Clemson product paced New York's backfield in carries in a run-heavy game script, though he accounted for only 40 percent of the team's total in that category, with seven different Giants contributing to a total of 35 team carries. He and Alfred Morris…read more

Set for another start
Gallman will likely replace Devonta Freeman (ankle) as the starting running back for Sunday's game at Washington, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gallman handled the assignment in Monday's 25-23 loss to Tampa Bay, putting up 62 yards and a touchdown on 13 touches while playing 43 percent of the offensive snaps. Alfred Morris and Dion Lewis both took on 28 percent snap shares, with the former getting eight carries and the latter three targets. Gallman may be the leader of this patchwork group, but the fantasy floor is awfully low when you're stuck in both a committee and a bad offense.

Scores in start
Gallman rushed 12 times for 44 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 25-23 loss to the Buccaneers. He also caught his only target for 18 yards.
Analysis: Gallman started due to Devonta Freeman (ankle) being sidelined and handled his expanded role relatively well. The tailback slashed his way to a few chunk plays and provided the punch on a two-yard touchdown late in the second quarter. That gave Gallman a score in consecutive games, putting his stock on the rise ahead of Sunday's game against Washington, although Freeman's status should surely factor into Gallman's eventual outlook.

Slated to start
Gallman is expected to get the start in the Giants' backfield in Monday's matchup against the Buccaneers, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: With Devonta Freeman (ankle) officially ruled out, Gallman will get his shot to lead New York's backfield. He recorded 34 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries in last week's loss to the Eagles following Freeman going down. Still, Dion Lewis should also see some action, especially on passing downs, and the team is also expected to promote Alfred Morris from the practice squad for more depth.

Impressive in relief of Freeman
Gallman rushed 10 times for 34 yards and a touchdown and secured all five targets for 20 yards in the Giants' 22-21 loss to the Eagles on Thursday night.
Analysis: After Devonta Freeman appeared to pick up an ankle injury on the second drive of the third quarter, Gallman became the featured back and toughed his way to a solid performance. While running room was often at a premium against the Eagles' stingy front seven, Gallman still found his way to a solid fantasy performance courtesy of a one-yard touchdown run and by serving as a reliable safety valve out of the backfield for Daniel Jones. Freeman will have extra time to heal up ahead of a Monday…read more

No touches Sunday
Gallman did not touch the ball during Sunday's 20-19 win over Washington.

Sees five carries
Gallman had five carries for 24 yards and caught both of his targets for zero yards in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys.

Leading rusher in loss
Gallman carried the ball six times for 45 yards in Sunday's 17-9 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: While Devonta Freeman led the Giants' backfield with 11 carries, it was Gallman who delivered the most rushing yards with his touches (tying quarterback Daniel Jones), although he wasn't a factor as a receiver. With the team's backfield likely to remain a committee, it's unlikely any of Freeman, Gallman or Dion Lewis will see a big workload in Week 5, but all three will have a chance to be productive against a Cowboys defense that just got torn apart for 307 rushing yards and three TDs by a…read more

Meager output vs 49ers
Gallman had four carries for seven yards and two catches for seven yards on three targets against the 49ers on Sunday.
Analysis: He was part of a three-man committee with Devonta Freeman and Dion Lewis, and like the other two, did next to nothing. Gallman's ceiling is low, and his floor would be getting released from the roster at any point once Freeman is comfortable in the offense.

May get first post-Barkley start
Gallman lined up with the Giants' first-team offense during warmups, indicating he may be the team's starting running back Sunday versus the 49ers, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: In the wake of Saquon Barkley's season-ending torn ACL, the Giants backfield likely will be a committee for the foreseeable future, but it appears Gallman will get the first chance to take the first snap between him, Dion Lewis and newcomer Devonta Freeman. Clearly, Freeman has the most visible resume among the trio, but after just five days with the team, he doesn't seem likely to be a huge part of the game plan.

Drops back to No. 3 role
Gallman is slated to be the No. 3 RB after the Giants signed Devonta Freeman on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Gallman's fantasy outlook was brighter for a moment following news that Saquon Barkley (torn ACL) was done for the season, but the addition of Freeman likely means he'll be the third option in the backfield. Freeman will likely be the clear lead back eventually, and incumbent Dion Lewis is a better pass catcher than Gallman, whose upside is limited as a result.

Should see more work
Gallman is in line to split backfield duties with Dion Lewis with Saquon Barkley (knee) set to miss the remainder of the season, Paul Schwartz of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: Gallman was a healthy scratch in the Week 2 loss to the Bears, but he should get the chance to play in Week 3 against the 49ers. Keep in mind the Giants still could sign someone like Devonta Freeman to factor into the backfield mix, which would be a negative development for both Gallman and Lewis. Gallman's upside is capped due to the Giants' poor offensive line and the fact that Lewis is the superior pass-catching option.

Surprise scratch for Week 2
Gallman (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Bears, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com.
Analysis: The Clemson product only saw the field for three offensive snaps Week 1, but now he's been relegated from the active roster entirely, as Dion Lewis continues to slot in as the backup running back behind Saquon Barkley. Gallman registered 145 offensive touches as a rookie in 2017, but his offensive role has steadily treaded downward in the two-plus seasons since.

One touch in opener
Gallman didn't get a carry and caught his lone target for 14 yards in Monday's 26-16 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: There wasn't much work to go around behind bell cow Saquon Barkley, as Dion Lewis had just one carry and one target. Gallman's unlikely to gain fantasy relevance unless something happens to Barkley, and even then, he'll be stuck behind a Giants offensive line that cleared zero holes for Saquon in this one (six yards on 15 carries).

Could win backup job
Gallman has turned in a solid training camp and is the favorite to win the early down backup job behind Saquon Barkley, Zack Rosenblatt of NJ.com reports.

Ends 2019 on shaky ground
Gallman carried the ball 29 times for 110 yards and two touchdowns across 10 games in 2019. He also secured 11 of 15 targets for 102 yards and a score.
Analysis: Gallman burst onto the fantasy scene Week 4 with an impressive showing, in which he drew the start in place of an injured Saquon Barkley and scored twice while exceeding 100 total yards. However, he ended the year with five straight designations as a healthy scratch, and he ultimately ceded the majority of backup work to Javorius Allen. Gallman will enter the final year of his rookie contract in 2020, but his standing in New York's backfield appears unclear at best.

Out once more
Gallman is inactive for the team's Week 16 contest against Washington, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gallman will be a healthy scratch for the third consecutive game, ceding the backup role to Javorius Allen. While Saquon Barkley continues to shoulder the majority of the workload out of the backfield for the Giants, Allen did record eight carries and found the end zone in Week 15 against Miami.

Healthy scratch Monday
Gallman (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game at Philadelphia, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
Analysis: For the first time this season, Gallman will be a healthy scratch. Aside from getting 24 touches Week 4 in place of an injured Saquon Barkley, Gallman has just 16 total in his other nine appearances. Look for Javorius Allen and Elijhaa Penny to receive any RB reps that don't go to Barkley.

No snaps Sunday
Gallman didn't play in Sunday's 31-13 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: Despite being active, Gallman garnered no tread in a game that was never truly out of reach until the fourth quarter. Javorious Allen garnered a carry on three snaps while Saquon Barkley recorded a whopping 64 of 67 offensive snaps (96 percent). Whether Gallman or Allen is the No. 2 behind Barkley is irrelevant except for handcuff purposes.

Logs two offensive snaps
Gallman gained a yard on one carry in Sunday's 19-14 loss to the Bears.
Analysis: Saquon Barkley recorded a season-high snap share (97 percent), leaving Gallman in the dust with just two offensive snaps. Gallman is still a solid handcuff as the fantasy playoffs approach, but he has no value beyond that.

Musters up five yards
Gallman rushed once for two yards and caught one of two targets for three yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Jets.
Analysis: The Giants couldn't get anything going on the ground, and that includes Saquon Barkley (undisclosed), who managed just one yard on 13 carries. Barkley was banged-up during Sunday's loss, but the Giants are optimistic he'll be healthy for Week 12's game against the Bears following their upcoming bye, according to Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post. If that's the case, Gallman can be left on waivers for fantasy purposes.

Zero touches in loss
Gallman didn't catch his only target in Monday's 37-18 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: Gallman barely saw the field until the Giants were behind by three possessions and the team shut down Saquon Barkley for the night. The third-year pro hasn't been afforded a carry over the last three weeks, and his usage will be minimal as long as Barkley is healthy.
