Rams' Davis Allen: Blanked on stat sheet
Davis Allen wasn't targeted during Sunday's 28-22 victory against the Patriots.Matthew Stafford sent only a single target towards a tight end, with Colby Parkinson catching a 19-yard touchdown pass in the third quarter. Allen still operated as the No. 1 tight end, on the field for 34 snaps compared to 19 for Parkinson and 18 for Hunter Long. Another tough task for the Los Angeles Rams' tight ends is up next Week 12, as the Eagles have held the position to just under 40 yards per game.

Rams' Davis Allen: Commands snap share in loss
Davis Allen secured five of six targets for 34 yards during Sunday's 23-15 loss to the Dolphins.With Colby Parkinson's role shrinking over the past few weeks, Allen took over the primary tight end role this week, and the second-year tight end out of Clemson enjoyed season-high usage (56 out of 70 snaps on offense) to go along with a massive uptick in production. Parkinson (11 snaps) and Hunter Long (nine snaps) both failed to record a target in the contest. A tough task lies in wait in Week 11 against a Patriots defense that just held Cole Kmet to two catches for 13 yards as part of a complete shutdown of the Bears' offense.

Rams' Davis Allen: Questionable versus Chicago
Davis Allen (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.Allen has missed the last two games but was upgraded to a full practice Friday after getting in limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday. If Allen is able to return against the Bears, it would likely push Hunter Long back to TE3 duties. Colby Parkinson has virtually been an every-down tight end for Los Angeles.

Rams' Davis Allen: Limited to open week
Davis Allen (back) was a limited participant at the Los Angeles Rams' practice Wednesday, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.Allen was forced to miss the team's 27-24 win over the 49ers in Week 3 due to a back injury, but his ability to practice in any capacity Wednesday is a step in the right direction. The tight end will look to increase his workload at one of the team's two remaining practices this week prior to Sunday's matchup with the Bears.

Rams' Davis Allen: Ruled out for Week 3
Davis Allen (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against San Francisco, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.The Los Angeles Rams' No. 2 tight end will miss his second straight game. With Allen out last Sunday against the Cardinals, Colby Parkinson was essentially an every-down tight end before the starters were pulled late in the blowout loss. Hunter Long played 10 snaps mostly in mop-up duty and will be Parkinson's backup against the 49ers.

Rams' Davis Allen: Still not practicing
Davis Allen (back) did not practice Wednesday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.Allen missed practice all of last week due to a back issue and didn't suit up for Sunday's loss to Arizona. His absence from practice to begin this week isn't a promising sign for his chance of returning to action against San Francisco in Week 3, though he'll have two more days to get back on the field prior to the release of Friday's final injury report. If Allen can't suit up Sunday, Hunter Long is likely to continue to back up Colby Parkinson at tight end.

The tight end is dealing with a back injury that kept him out of practice entirely throughout the week. Allen's upcoming absence Sunday will likely move Hunter Long into the Los Angeles Rams' No. 2 tight-end role behind Colby Parkinson.
