STACKED’s take

Negative signalValue

Kaytron Allen available on waivers; low-risk depth add for Bengals short-yardage needs.

The source identifies Kaytron Allen as a low-risk waiver claim for the Bengals to address depth at running back, particularly for short-yardage situations where the team currently lacks a power runner. Allen was cut by Washington as a sixth-round rookie while the Commanders juggled roster spots for injured players returning. The source argues that adding a short-yardage threat would open up more offensive possibilities for Joe Burrow and reduce pressure on the passing game, making this a worthwhile depth move.
