Braelon Allen absolutely commanded the backfield for the New York Jets in Week 4, rushing for 59 yards on 14 carries against the Chicago Bears. This wasn’t just a decent outing; it was the entire running game, with Allen being the *only* player to get a carry the entire game. Talk about taking the reins!
Why Those Carries Matter So Much
This dude wasn’t just pounding the rock, either. Allen also snagged two passes for eight yards, showing he can be a factor in the passing game when called upon. But seriously, the real headline here is that he got *every single carry*. If Breece Hall isn’t back on the field next week, Allen is set to be the workhorse. You just can’t ignore that kind of volume.
Look, this isn’t complicated. When a guy gets that kind of usage, he immediately jumps onto the radar. If you’re looking for help at running back or need a savvy move for your flex spot, Allen is right there. He’s officially a strong No. 3 running back or a killer flex option if he’s starting again next week. Keep your eyes peeled for those injury reports because Allen’s stock is directly tied to Hall’s status.
