From the episode

Bucky's at 14 right now... I'm okay with Bucky, even though it's not like the best matchup just because what do they do with Bucky? They'll just start middle dump passing.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Allen remains a viable play despite matchup concerns; still involved in passing game.

Allen is ranked RB 14 and the source is comfortable with him despite a suboptimal matchup, noting that the Packers will use him in middle dump passing situations; Gainwell's presence does not eliminate Allen from the passing game.
