Braelon Allen Must Be Sold-High in Fantasy Football After a 116-Yard Breakout Game
xCruzo Brief
Braelon Allen is coming off a Week 5 breakout, rushing 24 times for 116 yards and a game-winning touchdown, but fantasy managers are being warned to think beyond the immediate production. Going into Week 6 against the Patriots, projections rank Allen as a top-20 running back, yet the article argues for considering a trade while his stock is elevated. The key factor is Breece Hall’s expected return. Hall is expected to stay out through Week 6 and return in Week 7 versus the Miami Dolphins after an injured quad suffered in Week 3. In Hall’s absence, the rushing split has been 70-30 in Hall’s favor, and the Jets’ run blocking ranks 8th-worst by yards before contact per attempt.
