Allen, a pass-protection specialist in Jacksonville's backfield, should not significantly hinder Bhayshul Tuten's lead-back role. Etienne Jr.'s 2025 receiving role (36 receptions, only one on third down) suggests Allen's involvement will be limited to passing situations, leaving early-down work and the bulk of carries to Tuten.

Very much still a committee, but Tuten probably gets the playing time bump with LeQuint Allen out, but worth noting that Ameer Abdullah might make the team now Abdullah played a similar role with the Colts last season
