Summary
Kaytron Allen is a disciplined, reliable runner who thrives on patience and vision. While he lacks elite explosive speed, he excels at setting up blockers and hitting holes with conviction in both zone and gap schemes. His thick frame and low pad level allow him to grind out extra yardage and consistently move the chains. Allen is a high-floor prospect who provides steady production and a physical, no-nonsense running style.
