Allen is part of a crowded tight end room for the Rams, and he is not worth drafting in the majority of leagues this season. Los Angeles has Tyler Higbee, Colby Parkinson, Terrance Ferguson and Max Klare ahead of Allen on the depth chart, and it will be hard for Allen to make plays on a consistent basis, barring an injury. In 2025, Allen had 24 catches for 208 yards and three touchdowns on 33 targets, but it will be hard for him to dramatically increase those stats if everyone is healthy. The good news is the Rams like to use a lot of multiple-tight-end sets. The bad news is Allen is low on the depth chart, and we don't expect him to make a significant Fantasy contribution in most formats in 2026.
Rams' Davis Allen: Getting examined for possible concussion
Rotowire
Allen is getting examined for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Thursday's matchup with the 49ers.
The tight end recorded one catch on one target for 13 yards before exiting. The Rams use as many as four tight ends, and in Allen's absence, Colby Parkinson, Tyler Higbee and Terrance Ferguson are the players still available at the position.

Rams' Davis Allen: Good to go for Week 1
Rotowire
Allen (quadriceps) is not listed on the Rams' injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the 49ers, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Allen missed a few weeks of training camp with a quad injury but is all good for the opener. The tight end appeared in all 17 regular-season games last season, finishing with career highs in targets (33), catches (24), yards (208) and touchdowns (three) while playing 52 percent of the Rams' offensive snaps. He's expected to again be a big part of Los Angeles' heavy tight end usage in 2026, but Terrance Ferguson, Colby Parkinson and Tyler Higbee all profile as better pass-catching options.

Rams' Davis Allen: Logs limited practice Monday
Rotowire
Allen (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Monday's training camp practice, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
Allen has been limited to side work in training camp while recovering from a quadriceps injury, but his ability to practice Monday, even in a limited capacity, is a positive sign for the 2023 fifth-rounder. He's unlikely to play in Thursday's preseason finale against the Chargers, but Allen is working his way toward being available for the Rams' regular-season opener against the 49ers on Thursday, Sept. 10.

Rams' Davis Allen: Taking reserved approach to injury
Rotowire
The Rams are giving Allen (quadriceps) "some time" before he returns to practice, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Coach Sean McVay said that due to the soft-tissue nature of the injury, they do not want to rush Allen back. The tight end was a prominent part of the Rams' 13-personnel offense during the 2025 season, drawing 33 targets for 24 receptions, 208 yards and three touchdowns over 17 regular-season games. The 25-year-old was also a prominent member of the trenches in the McVay scheme, logging additional offensive and special teams snaps that helped lead the team to its 12-5 record. Now in a contract year, when Allen does return, he is set to become a consistent contributor for the 2026 Rams.

Rams' Davis Allen: Held without catch
Rotowire
Allen failed to draw a target during Monday's 27-24 loss to the Falcons.
Monday's contest felt like a shift in the dynamic of the tight end grouping for the Rams, with Colby Parkinson leading the group with seven targets and six catches for 53 yards, while Terrance Ferguson broke through with two big catches, including a 27-yard touchdown grab in the third quarter. Allen's 27 snaps on offense were the lowest he's recorded since Week 13 against Carolina, and Parkinson's 51 snaps marked the first truly significant separation in snap share for the trio of tight ends since Tyler Higbee (ankle) went on injured reserve. Given Parkinson's emergence and Ferguson's big-play ability starting to emerge in the past two weeks, Allen's arrow seems to be trending down heading into the regular-season finale against the Cardinals in Week 18.

Rams' Davis Allen: Makes three grabs against Detroit
Rotowire
Allen secured three of four targets for 16 yards during Sunday's 41-34 win against the Lions.
While Allen and fellow backup Terrance Ferguson both took the field for over three-quarters of the snaps on offense, Colby Parkinson continued to be the fantasy darling of the trio, recording a fantastic 5-75-2 line on the day and earning his sixth touchdown in as many weeks. Allen's four targets and three catches both tied his season high for the year, making his ceiling low and his fantasy relevance dependent on finding the end zone; something he hasn't done since Week 10 against San Francisco. He'll likely take a back seat to Parkinson again in a huge Week 16 matchup on Thursday night against division rival Seattle.

Rams' Davis Allen: Garners a pair of catches
Rotowire
Allen secured both of his targets for 21 yards during Sunday's 45-17 victory against the Cardinals.
Despite Allen, Colby Parkinson and Terrance Ferguson all being on the field for nearly identical amounts of time, Parkinson has become the clear top target of the trio during Tyler Higbee's (ankle) absence. Parkinson's six-yard touchdown catch in the third quarter was his fourth touchdown in his last five games, while Allen has managed just eight catches for 62 yards and a touchdown in that same span. It's unlikely to see Allen's numbers significantly spike any time soon, even with a depleted Lions defense up next in Week 15.

Rams' Davis Allen: One catch in reduced role
Rotowire
Allen secured his only target for four yards during Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Panthers.
In the absence of Tyler Higbee (ankle), Colby Parkinson has been the main beneficiary, and on Sunday he once again led all Rams tight ends in snap count, targets, receptions and yards. Neither Allen nor Terrance Ferguson (two targets) were a factor on offense, and Parkinson looks to retain his role as the team's top tight end while Higbee is on injured reserve. The Cardinals are up next in a divisional showdown in Week 14, and Davis will continue to be touchdown-dependent to be a fantasy contributor.

Rams' Davis Allen: Season-high three catches
Rotowire
Allen secured three of four targets for 37 yards during Sunday's 34-10 win against the Saints.
Allen enjoyed a slight bump in playing time and used it to produce his first multi-catch game of the season. The quartet of Rams' tight ends continue to operate in a timeshare on offense, heavily capping any upside that could be had from any individual player. Without an injury or trade that would reduce the number of mouths to feed, it will be difficult to trust any tight end for the Rams for fantasy purposes. A divisional showdown against San Francisco is up next for Allen and the Rams in Week 10.

Rams' Davis Allen: Records sixth one-catch game
Rotowire
Allen secured his only target for four yards during Sunday's 35-7 win against the Jaguars.
Allen, if nothing else, has been a model of consistency through the 2025 campaign; he's recorded either one or two targets and one or two receptions in all seven games he's played in. After starting the year with touchdowns in the first two contests, however, Allen has failed to find paydirt since. With a tepid 8-59-2 receiving line and Terrance Ferguson, Colby Parkinson and Tyler Higbee all sharing targets in a crowded tight-end room, Allen seems likely to continue his meager production. He'll face off against the Saints in Week 9 after enjoying a bye in Week 8.

Rams' Davis Allen: Makes two catches
Rotowire
Allen secured both of his targets for 24 yards during Thursday's 26-23 overtime loss to the 49ers.
Despite Tyler Higbee (hip) sitting out and being on the field for 60 percent of the snaps on offense, Allen couldn't make the expanded role translate to positive fantasy production. The two catches and 24 yards both marked season highs for third-year pro, but a suddenly crammed Rams' tight end room has yielded next-to-no production through five games. The Ravens are up next on the schedule in a Week 6 tilt next Sunday, and while they have been one of the league's worst defenses, a four-man rotation at tight end if Higbee returns from injury will make it hard to trust Allen in fantasy lineups.

Rams' Davis Allen: Sees role deteriorate
Rotowire
Allen secured his only target for no gain during Sunday's 27-20 victory against the Colts.
Tyler Higbee played despite suffering a hip injury on Thursday and easily paced the Rams' tight-end group in yards and targets. Colby Parkinson and Allen were each on the field for around 30 percent of the Rams' snaps on offense (which marked Allen's lowest usage of the season) and Parkinson made the most of his limited time on the field, making two catches for 17 yards. Given Allen's eroding snap share, he and Parkinson may be closer to being 2A and 2B on the depth chart, roles that have limited fantasy appeal on a Rams passing attack that goes primarily through Puka Nacua and Davante Adams.

Rams' Davis Allen: Third straight game with one grab
Rotowire
Allen secured his only target for three yards during Sunday's 33-26 loss to the Eagles.
Despite splitting time with Colby Parkinson as the backup to starter Tyler Higbee, Allen was the only tight end for the Rams to make a catch. Allen scored touchdowns in each of his first two weeks this season, but given the extreme lack of targets heading his way and his role in what amounts to a three-way time share on offense, Allen will remain hard to trust in fantasy rosters against the undefeated Colts in Week 4.

Rams' Davis Allen: Limited in practice
Rotowire
Allen (knee) was a limited participant in the Rams' practice Wednesday, Sarah Barshop of ESPN reports.
Allen is one of two of the team's tight ends to be dealing with an injury, as Colby Parkinson sat out practice due to a sprained AC joint. Allen caught one of his two targets for 13 yards and a touchdown during the team's Week 1 win over the Texans, and it remains to be seen if he'll be good to go for Sunday's matchup versus the Titans.

Rams' Davis Allen: Two catches in preseason win
Rotowire
Allen secured both of his targets for 17 yards during Saturday's 31-21 preseason victory against the Cowboys.
Year 3 for the former fourth-round draft pick out of Clemson started relatively quietly, although his meager receiving totals actually paced the Rams' tight end corps as Mark Redman managed just nine yards on his only catch. Tyler Higbee looks poised to reclaim his role as the lead tight end for the Rams, and 2025 second-round pick Terrance Ferguson (groin) also is a lock to make the team. Colby Parkinson sits as the primary competition for the tertiary tight end role, but Parkinson was a disappointment in his first year with the Rams (a modest 30-294-1 line over 17 games), which could give Allen a chance to leap the veteran on the depth chart to start the 2025 campaign.

Rams' Davis Allen: Held without a catch
Rotowire
Allen played seven snaps on offense and 13 snaps on special teams during Sunday's 28-22 NFC divisional-round loss to the Eagles.
The second-year tight end never got going during the 2024 campaign, managing just six catches for 39 yards despite increasing his number of snaps on offense from 182 in his rookie year to 292. Colby Parkinson, who was brought in to act as the starter, eventually slid into a timeshare with Allen and Hunter Long, before Tyler Higbee returned from ACL and MCL injuries to take over as the starter for the final few games of the season. Long is an unrestricted free agent, which will leave Allen and Parkinson vying for the backup role behind Higbee in 2025.

Rams' Davis Allen: No targets in Week 15
Rotowire
Allen (shoulder) played 15 of the Rams' 65 snaps on offense and went without a target in Thursday's 12-6 win over the 49ers.
Listed as questionable leading up to Thursday due to the shoulder injury, Allen received clearance to play but didn't carve out much of a role on offense. He finished third among Rams tight ends in snaps, trailing Colby Parkinson (32) and Hunter Long (22). With the Rams activated Tyler Higbee (knee) from the PUP list Tuesday in anticipation that he makes his season debut Sunday against the Jets, Allen could be a candidate for the inactive list.

Rams' Davis Allen: Blanked on stat sheet
Rotowire
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 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: Week 11 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Allen has seen an increase in playing time in the past two games, and he just had five catches for 34 yards on six targets in Week 10 against Miami. He's moved ahead of Colby Parkinson as the tight end to rely on for the Rams, and Allen is worth adding in deeper leagues for 1 percent of your remaining FAB heading into Week 11 at New England.
