Jets' Braelon Allen: Career-high 147 rushing yards in Week 8
Allen rushed 21 times for 147 yards and a touchdown while catching both of his targets for six yards in Sunday's 38-33 loss to the Raiders.
Allen made a fifth consecutive start in the absence of Breece Hall (quadriceps) and exceeded 100 scrimmage yards for the fourth consecutive game. The 2024 fourth-round pick set a new career high with 147 rushing yards, surpassing Allen's 116 yards on the ground in the Week 5 win over the Browns. Allen scored his third rushing touchdown of the season on a 21-yard run in the third quarter to give the Jets a 30-21 lead, but the Raiders closed the game on a 17-3 run to drop the Jets to 2-6. If Hall's ready to return in Week 9 against the Chiefs, the Jets could opt for a backfield split between Allen and Hall.

Jets' Braelon Allen: Set to start Sunday
Allen is slated to be the Jets' starting running back Sunday against the Raiders, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
For a second week in a row, fellow RB Breece Hall (quadriceps) was listed as questionable to play, but he was inactive in Week 7, and his status remains up in the air for Week 8. Rapoport's report indicates Allen will continue to run ahead of Hall if the latter is active, but if Hall isn't available Allen then will have most of the Jets backfield to himself for a fifth straight game. In the first four, Allen combined for 83 touches for 421 yards from scrimmage and one rushing TD.

Jets' Braelon Allen: Upgrades to full practice Thursday
Allen (ankle) was a full participant at Thursday's practice.
Allen began Week 8 prep as a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, but he shed all limitations Thursday, while Breece Hall (quadriceps) remained limited for a second consecutive practice Thursday. Hall got the majority of backfield touches over Allen when both were healthy to begin the season, but the former hasn't seen game action since Week 3. Allen should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Raiders, but uncertainty lingers regarding Hall's status.

Jets' Braelon Allen: Managing ankle injury in Week 8
Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said that Allen will be a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to ankle injury, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Over the past four games, Allen has filled in for Breece Hall (quadriceps) as the Jets' lead back, but both players will kick off Week 8 prep with limitations in practice. In Allen's case, he may just be a bit banged up after averaging 20.8 touches per contest in Hall's absence, so as long as doesn't take any steps back in terms of practice activity as the week rolls along, Allen should be on track to play Sunday versus the Raiders. The extent of Allen's role will depend on the availability of Hall, who could also suit up this weekend if he responds well to practicing over the next three days.

Jets' Braelon Allen: Tops 100 rushing yards in Week 7
Allen rushed 17 times for 104 yards and caught six of seven targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 28-25 loss to the Dolphins.
Allen worked as the lead back for a fourth consecutive game, as Breece Hall (quadriceps) was ultimately inactive after being listed as questionable heading into the game. The 235-pound Allen continued to struggle in short yardage, getting stuffed on a goal-line attempt in the fourth quarter as the Jets were denied a game-tying touchdown and instead settled for a field goal to cut the deficit to four points with 8:57 remaining. Allen has exceeded 100 rushing yards twice during Hall's absence but has just one touchdown over that span and two touchdowns this season. Hall worked ahead of Allen prior to getting hurt, but they may split the backfield workload more evenly if Hall's cleared to return against the Raiders in Week 8.

Jets' Braelon Allen: Handling lead role again Sunday
Allen will remain the Jets' No. 1 back for Sunday's Week 7 matchup against the Dolphins, as Breece Hall has been declared inactive for the contest.
With Hall unavailable for a fourth straight game Sunday, Allen will have a chance to build on the averages of 18.3 rush attempts, 84.3 rushing yards, 1.7 receptions and 11.3 receiving yards he's generated in the lead role over his teammate's first three absences. Despite their winless record, the Dolphins have been respectable defending the run, allowing 4.0 yards per carry to running backs, albeit while also conceding a 25-197-5 receiving line to the position.

Jets' Braelon Allen: Week 7 role uncertain
Allen's workload and role Sunday against Miami is unclear given that Breece Hall (quadriceps) is officially questionable to play, per Amanda Vogt of the Jets' official site.
With Hall sidelined the past three weeks, Allen has stepped up to lead New York's backfield. He's performed well in that role, averaging 84.3 rush yards per game and 4.6 yards per carry, albeit with only one touchdown. Hall will likely step back into the starting role if he's able to suit up Sunday, though Allen is expected to get a fair amount of work as well. Even if Hall does return to action, both ball carriers could find success against a Dolphins defense that has given up the second-most fantasy points per game (23.7) to running backs.

Jets' Braelon Allen: Eclipses 100 scrimmage yards in loss
Allen rushed 17 times for 78 yards and brought in both targets for 26 yards in the Jets' 26-19 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
Allen served as the Jets' clear lead back during Breece Hall's second straight absence due to a quadriceps injury, and the former put together a productive effort that featured a new season high in receiving yards. Allen has acquitted himself very well as the No. 1 option over the last two games, posting 194 rushing yards and a touchdown alongside three receptions and the 26 receiving yards he accrued Sunday. If Hall remains sidelined in Week 7, Allen will get a crack at a beatable Dolphins defense at home.

Jets' Braelon Allen: Remains RB1 for Week 6
Allen will once again operate as the Jets' primary running back for Sunday's game against the Patriots due to the absence of Breece Hall (quadriceps).
Allen had a huge part in the Jets' Week 5 win over the Browns, totalling 116 yards and a touchdown over 24 rushes. The running back is set to reprise his role as one of the team's foremost offensive weapons against the Patriots on Sunday as Breece Hall (quadriceps) continues to recover.

Jets' Braelon Allen: Breaks out for 116 yards, TD
Allen rushed 24 times for 116 yards and a touchdown while catching one of four targets for no gain in Sunday's 17-12 win over the Browns.
Allen ran in the go-ahead 22-yard touchdown with 3:01 remaining, and the Jets' defense held twice after that to secure the team's second win of the season. The 2024 fourth-round pick handled lead-back duties for the second consecutive game in the absence of Breece Hall (quadriceps), notching 25 touches to Isaiah Davis' three. After reaching 100 rushing yards in a game for the first time in his career, Allen would be in line for another substantial workload in Week 6 against the Patriots if Hall remains sidelined.
