Braelon Allen A Candidate To Lead Jets Backfield In Week 13
26 seconds agoNew York Jets running back Braelon Allen could make his first career NFL start if Breece Hall (knee) is unable to play against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 13. Hall has been dealing with soreness for nearly two weeks. He won't practice Wednesday, and interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich was non-committal on his status for Sunday. If Hall doesn't suit up, Allen would immediately step into a role that allows him to earn north of 15 touches against a softer Seahawks run defense. That's a significant upgrade over his current role, which only affords him 5.6 carries, 20.8 rushing yards, and 0.3 touchdowns per game. Allen would rank as a low-end fantasy RB2 if he were to start Sunday.
