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

Washington Commanders cut rookie sixth-round running back Kaytron Allen, exposing him to waivers. The source suggests Cincinnati should claim him as a low-risk move to address depth at running back and provide a short-yardage threat; defenses aren't respecting the Bengals' running game in those situations, and having Allen could open up more offensive possibilities for Joe Burrow while taking pressure off the passing game.
