Braelon Allen Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

Jets RB Braelon Allen (back) is active for today’s game vs. the Rams. He’s not a viable fantasy option, especially with RB Breece Hall off this week’s injury report.

Jets RB Braelon Allen (back) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Rams. He put in a full practice on Friday, so he should play. RB Breece Hall was never listed on this week’s injury report, though, suggesting that he’s ready for a bigger workload. Allen isn’t a fantasy option.

Jets RB Braelon Allen is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Jaguars with a back injury. His absence leaves the backfield to Breece Hall and Isaiah Davis.

Update: Allen returned in the third quarter.

Jets RB Breece Hall (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Jaguars. He was listed as questionable but was a full-go in Friday’s practice. And there was optimism about his status throughout the weekend. We’d still be surprised if Hall handled his normal workload for a Jets team with nothing to play for. Remember that Hall tallied just 12 carries and one target playing through this knee injury back in Week 13. He checks in as a low-end RB2 in the Week 15 Rankings.

Jets RB Breece Hall (knee) is expected to play vs. the Jaguars on Sunday, according to ESPN's Rich Cimini. "Looks good ... promising," interim HC Jeff Ulbrich said of Hall's Week 15 status on Friday. Hall did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday, so it's safe to assume he's still not at 100%. We're frankly surprised that the Jets would play Hall in this meaningless game -- and would be even more surprised if he handles a big workload. Hall tallied just 12 carries and one target playing through this knee injury back in Week 13. Consider him no better than a risky RB2 in Week 15 fantasy lineups, despite the plus matchup. Hall's return knocks RBs Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis out of consideration.

Update: Hall is listed as questionable but was a full participant in Friday's practice.

Jets interim HC Jeff Ulbrich said Wednesday that RB Breece Hall is "struggling a bit" with his knee injury. “Maybe it’s not improving as much as he’d like, at this point," Ulbrich added. "We’ll see how it goes this week.” We'll keep you posted on Hall's progress over the next few days, but fantasy owners should not be counting on him playing in a meaningless game vs. the Jaguars on Sunday. RBs Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis split work almost right down the middle with Hall out last week.

The Jets are not planning to shut down RB Breece Hall (knee), ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. It's still unclear when Hall might be ready to return from what's been reported as hyperextension and MCL issues in his previously surgically repaired left knee. We'll track his practice participation this coming week, as well as what the Jets' backfield looks like with rookies Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis today.

Jets RB Breece Hall (knee) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins. He's dealing with a hyperextension and MCL issue in his left knee, according to ESPN's Rich Cimini. That's the same knee in which Hall tore the ACL in October 2022. We haven't heard a timeline for Hall's return, but it's possible that the 3-9 Jets just shut him down for the season. He's worth keeping stashed on all fantasy rosters for now, but Hall owners should be prepping to be without him beyond just this week.

Jets RB Breece Hall (knee) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins. It looks like he made the knee injury worse playing through it last week. We'll see if Hall misses time beyond Week 14 for a Jets team that's just playing out the string on the season. Hall's absence this weekend leaves the backfield to rookies Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis. Allen is a good bet to lead in carries, but this Jets coaching staff seems to like what Davis has given them lately. He could be more involved than expected.

Jets RB Breece Hall (knee) missed his second straight practice on Thursday. That's a downgrade from last week, when Hall was limited on Thursday. He's not a lock to play vs. the Dolphins this weekend. Hall's absence would leave Braelon Allen as the Jets' likely lead back, with Isaiah Davis as the No. 2. Check back tomorrow for another update on Hall.

Jets RB Breece Hall entered Sunday's game questionable with a knee issue and finished the loss to Seattle with his smallest playing-time share of the season. Hall played 61.8% of the offensive snaps, marking just the second time all year that he played less than 70%. Hall had played 74-87% in each of the previous seven games.

Jets RB Breece Hall did not practice on Wednesday. HC Jeff Ulbrich said Hall "got nicked in the knee" back in Week 11 and is still dealing with some soreness. "So we’re just gonna protect him from himself a little bit today," Ulbrich added. "We’ll see how the week goes along. Still hopeful that he’s gonna play for us, we’ll see." RB Braelon Allen would likely step into a workhorse role if Hall is unable to play vs. the Seahawks on Sunday. We'll update his status again tomorrow.

Jets RB Braelon Allen carried 12 times for 32 yards and the team's lone rushing TD in Sunday's loss to the Patriots.

Jets RB Breece Hall looked in top form against Pittsburgh, totaling 141 yards on 18 touches. Five of his touches went for at least ten yards.

Todd Downing will replace Nathaniel Hackett as the Jets' play-caller, interim HC Jeff Ulbrich announced on Thursday. While defensive-minded HC Robert Saleh was canned earlier this week, the offense has been the real problem in New York. The Jets rank 23rd in points, 27th in total yards, and 27th in yards per play. That's largely on Hackett, who has deployed a stale offense. We're just not sure it'll get much better with Downing. He's spent three seasons as an NFL OC, one with the Raiders and two with the Titans. Those offenses ranked 17th, 17th, and 30th in total yards. QB Aaron Rodgers is on board with the move, according to insider Connor Hughes. We'll get our first look at Downing's offense in Monday night's Jets vs. Bills game.

Jets RB Breece Hall ran the ball 10 times for only four yards. He caught two of his five targets for 14 yards. It was an extremely disappointing fantasy day for Hall who could not get anything going behind the Jets Offensive Line.

Jets RB Braelon Allen led the team with 55 rushing yards in Thursday night's win over the Patriots. He averaged 5.0 yards per carry on his 11 attempts. RB Breece Hall totaled 54 yards on his 16 carries (3.4 YPC). Allen flashed impressive acceleration and power throughout. He had a pair of 11-yard runs, and seven of his 11 runs went for 5+ yards. Allen also caught all three of his targets for 13 yards.

Jets HC Robert Saleh talked up RB Braelon Allen's passing-game ability after Saturday's preseason game. Allen caught just two of four targets for 12 yards in that one but has reportedly been impressing with his route running and pass protection in camp.

Jets fourth-round rookie RB Braelon Allen "has been one of the biggest standouts during OTA practices," according to Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic. Rosenblatt calls Allen the "clear frontrunner" for the No. 2 job behind Breece Hall, "especially because of his emergence as a legitimate option as a pass-catcher. That's especially noteworthy for Allen, who got little credit for his receiving ability coming out of Wisconsin. He totaled 49 catches across three starting seasons and averaged a mere 5.6 yards per catch.
