From the episode

He is, again, saying the coach's catnip, coach's favorite to a T special teams ace, one of the best pass protection backs as soon as he entered the league... he's not even a special... he's a passing down back, but he's not a pass catching back.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

A real-life blocking asset with limited fantasy relevance.

Matt Harmon and Nate Tice describe LaQuint Allen as a superior real-life player compared to his fantasy value. He is a specialized blocking back who plays on third downs but lacks pass-catching volume, ranking 47th in snaps on passing plays and running routes on fewer than 30% of dropbacks. He is expected to maintain a 15-20% snap share, with his usage potentially increasing against 'funky' defenses that require extra protection.
