Dolphins' Dwayne Allen: Returns to action Friday
Dwayne Allen started in Friday's preseason loss at Tampa Bay, logging eight of the 77 Miami Dolphins' offensive snaps.Making his first appearance of exhibition season, Allen didn't make an impact in the stat sheet and was called for offensive holding on Miami's second drive. There's little to take from the effort, aside from the fact he appears to have put the injury behind him that held him out of the initial weeks of training camp. Now, he can begin in earnest his competition for TE slotting behind top option Mike Gesicki.

Dolphins' Dwayne Allen: Ramping up workload
Dwayne Allen (knee) participated in 11-on-11 drills Tuesday for the first time during training camp, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.Allen began camp on the PUP list and has been steadily working to get back to full health. His involvement in team work is another notable step in the right direction, but the Miami Dolphins haven't formally committed to the veteran tight end being ready to go for the regular season. When healthy, Allen projects to serve as the Dolphins' starting tight end, though he may mostly be tasked with run-blocking work whenever he's on the field.

Dolphins' Dwayne Allen: Could miss start of regular season
Dwayne Allen (undisclosed) could miss the start of the regular season, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.This comes as a bit of a surprise, as Allen was activated off the PUP list earlier in the week. The veteran tight end hopes to be ready for the start of the regular season, but without any sort of information regarding the injury or its severity, it's difficult to project his availability one way or another. The 29-year-old is likely locked in as the premier run-blocking tight end regardless of his status throughout the preseason, but Mike Gesicki figures to benefit from the increase in snaps, as the second-year tight end was already considered the primary pass catcher at the position.

Dolphins' Dwayne Allen: Back in action
Dwayne Allen (undisclosed) was activated off the Miami Dolphins' PUP list Wednesday, Alain Poupart of the team's official site reports.The 29-year-old adds experience and strong blocking ability to the Dolphins' tight-end mix, but after combining for just 13 catches over the last two seasons with the Patriots, the free-agent addition needs to prove his fantasy utility within his new team context. It's worth noting that during Allen's stint with the Colts -- the team that drafted him in 2012 -- he recorded eight touchdowns in 2014 and six in 2016. Those numbers suggest that the 6-foot-4, 260-pounder could produce some in the red zone if given such opportunities by Miami.

The second-year pro is a superior athlete with far more upside as a pass catcher, but Allen's blocking and experience could allow him to carve out a sizable role.
