Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer believes Braelon Allen’s role in the Jets offense “could be pretty significant.”

It’s hard to fully unwrap what that means for the Jets offense without seeing it on the field. But if they are seeking to emulate the Lions and run Allen in a significant role “alongside [Breece] Hall,” it’s certainly possible Allen could have fantasy value this year. The 21-year-old second-year back already cut into Hall’s snaps in 2024, rushing 92 times to Hall’s 209. How effective Allen winds up being is probably more about the overall scope of the Jets offense with Justin Fields than it is about his play, but a significant role would certainly be enough to put him in the RB3 conversation.
