From the article

Hall has looked good this summer. So, too, has Allen. He really is a create-a-player with his size (6-1, 235).

Allen's size and camp performance position him as the clear second back in committee.

Allen has looked good in training camp and is a create-a-player with his size (6-1, 235). He is the second option in the Jets' backfield committee behind Breece Hall, though he won't be uninvolved. Had he not suffered a season-ending knee injury against the Dolphins last season, there was a real chance the Jets would have traded Hall at the deadline, making Allen the primary back.
