Is Breece Hall Injured Or Playing In Week 14? Should I Start Braelon Allen For Fantasy Football?

The New York Jets have had an awful 2024 season. They are second to last in the AFC East Division with a 3-9 record, having lost three consecutive contests.

More importantly, several Jet players have been fantasy football disappointments. Breece Hall is at the top of that list. Many fantasy players drafted the superstar as a top-five pick and the second running back off the board.

Unfortunately, Hall is the RB12 for the year, averaging 13.9 half-point PPR fantasy points per game.

Is Breece Hall Injured Or Playing In Week 14?

Hall has struggled with injuries in his career, including missing a significant part of his rookie season because of a torn ACL. Thankfully, the superstar hasn’t missed a game this year. Unfortunately, he is doubtful for Sunday’s matchup against the Miami Dolphins because of a knee injury.

Should I Start Braelon Allen In Week 14?

Fantasy players should run to grab Allen off the waiver wire if the rookie running back is available. While he is only the RB47 for the year, averaging 4.8 fantasy points per game, Allen has played well when given an opportunity.

Goes without saying but add Braelon Allen if available https://t.co/f2XA3670QB

The former Wisconsin star has averaged four yards per rushing attempt and nine fantasy points per game in the five contests with seven or more rushing attempts. More importantly, Allen should have no trouble taking advantage of a poor Dolphins run defense.

Miami has given up 21.3 fantasy points per game to running backs, the 11th-most in the NFL. They have surrendered over 100 rushing yards to running backs in nearly half of their matchups. Last week, the Green Bay Packers backfield had a rushing touchdown and 25.6 fantasy points against the Dolphins.

Allen is a borderline top-12 running back and a must-start for fantasy players if Hall misses Sunday’s matchup against the AFC East Division rivals.
