STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Allen's 51.7% success rate makes him a reliable schedule-keeper despite modest yardage.

The 2024 fourth-round pick from Wisconsin has established himself as a reliable, unflashy grind-it-out back. With a career 3.7 yards per carry average and 51.7% success rate, Allen keeps the offense on schedule despite lacking explosive plays. Against the Bears in Week 4, he posted 59 yards on 14 carries with a 57% success rate, demonstrating his ability to maintain offensive rhythm without highlight-reel runs. The source sees value in this profile as a complementary back in a duo approach.
