Braelon Allen - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Cedes majority of work to Hall Allen rushed eight times for 33 yards, caught both of his targets for 21 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 35-12 loss to the Chiefs.

Impact Allen was limited to 10 touches in Breece Hall's (quadriceps) return from a five-game absence, while Hall turned 18 touches into 87 yards. The 22-year-old Allen excelled during Hall's absence, topping 100 scrimmage yards in each of the previous four games, but Allen will be tough to trust moving forward in fantasy with Hall first in line for touches, especially in the negative game scripts that will likely persist for the 2-7 Jets. Allen's lost fumble was his first of the season, and he has put the ball on the ground only one other time, so at least ball security hasn't been an issue for him heading into a Week 10 home game against the Bills.

Impact Allen averaged 18.6 carries for 100.8 yards and 0.4 TDs over the past four games, adding 2.6 catches for 14.0 yards on 3.4 targets while playing at least 78 percent of snaps each week. He won't get that kind of workload with Hall back in the lineup, but it is possible that this turns into a hot-hand situation where Allen still has a chance to take the majority of carries if he outplays his backfield mate. Both Glenn and Hall said earlier this week that Hall is still viewed as the starter.

Braelon Allen Best Plays from 147-Yard Game vs Raiders | Week 8 Watch Braelon Allen's best runs from his 147-yard game in Week 8 against the Raiders.

NOVEMBER 1 • NEWYORKJETS.COM

Career-high 147 rushing yards in Week 8 Allen rushed 21 times for 147 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for six yards in Sunday's 38-33 loss to the Raiders.

Impact Allen made a fifth consecutive start in the absence of Breece Hall (quadriceps) and exceeded 100 scrimmage yards for the fourth consecutive game. The 2024 fourth-round pick set a new career high with 147 rushing yards, surpassing Allen's 116 yards on the ground in the Week 5 win over the Browns. Allen scored his third rushing touchdown of the season on a 21-yard run in the third quarter to give the Jets a 30-21 lead, but the Raiders closed the game on a 17-3 run to drop the Jets to 2-6. If Hall's ready to return in Week 9 against the Chiefs, the Jets could opt for a backfield split between Allen and Hall.

Set to start Sunday Allen is slated to be the Jets' starting running back Sunday against the Raiders, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact For a second week in a row, fellow RB Breece Hall (quadriceps) was listed as questionable to play, but he was inactive in Week 7, and his status remains up in the air for Week 8. Rapoport's report indicates Allen will continue to run ahead of Hall if the latter is active, but if Hall isn't available Allen then will have most of the Jets backfield to himself for a fifth straight game. In the first four, Allen combined for 83 touches for 421 yards from scrimmage and one rushing TD.

Upgrades to full practice Thursday Allen (ankle) was a full participant at Thursday's practice.

Impact Allen began Week 8 prep as a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, but he shed all limitations Thursday, while Breece Hall (quadriceps) remained limited for a second consecutive practice Thursday. Hall got the majority of backfield touches over Allen when both were healthy to begin the season, but the former hasn't seen game action since Week 3. Allen should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Raiders, but uncertainty lingers regarding Hall's status.

OCTOBER 26 • Associated Press

Tops 100 rushing yards in Week 7 Allen rushed 17 times for 104 yards and caught six of seven targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 28-25 loss to the Dolphins.

Impact Allen worked as the lead back for a fourth consecutive game, as Breece Hall (quadriceps) was ultimately inactive after being listed as questionable heading into the game. The 235-pound Allen continued to struggle in short yardage, getting stuffed on a goal-line attempt in the fourth quarter as the Jets were denied a game-tying touchdown and instead settled for a field goal to cut the deficit to four points with 8:57 remaining. Allen has exceeded 100 rushing yards twice during Hall's absence but has just one touchdown over that span and two touchdowns this season. Hall worked ahead of Allen prior to getting hurt, but they may split the backfield workload more evenly if Hall's cleared to return against the Raiders in Week 8.

Handling lead role again Sunday Allen will remain the Jets' No. 1 back for Sunday's Week 7 matchup against the Dolphins, as Breece Hall has been declared inactive for the contest.

Impact With Hall unavailable for a fourth straight game Sunday, Allen will have a chance to build on the averages of 18.3 rush attempts, 84.3 rushing yards, 1.7 receptions and 11.3 receiving yards he's generated in the lead role over his teammate's first three absences. Despite their winless record, the Dolphins have been respectable defending the run, allowing 4.0 yards per carry to running backs, albeit while also conceding a 25-197-5 receiving line to the position.
