Our Take After Week 4

Through 3 games he's RB81 at 1.0 PPR points per game, against 1.7 over 16 games last season (RB84). The role is producing the same fantasy output two years running.

Last season he ranked 81st of 95 in rushing volume (1.4 carries per game), 73rd of 95 in receiving role (0.7 targets per game) and 76th of 95 in efficiency (1.52 yards after contact per carry). Rushing volume is the soft spot. Trevor Lawrence is his quarterback.

He's RB3 on the depth chart, so his value depends on the players ahead of him.

The next favorable matchup is the Colts in Week 8 (5th against RBs).

Read our preseason outlook (June 2026)

Published June 17, 2026. Kept for reference; the take above replaces it.

Allen's rookie tape reads like a situational role, not a feature back: 16 games, just a 22.6% snap share, 23 carries for 94 yards (4.09 per pop) and 10 catches on 11 targets for 54 more. The efficiency markers underline the limited ceiling, with a -0.209 EPA per play, only 8.7% of runs going for explosive gains, and a meager 1.52 yards after contact per attempt. He found the end zone zero times and saw just six red-zone opportunities all year.

The value sits in dynasty patience rather than 2026 production. At 21, Allen earned trust on third downs for his pass protection, which keeps him on the field but caps the fantasy payoff since blocking does not score. Until his touch count climbs meaningfully, he projects as a waiver-wire flier in redraft. Dynasty managers can stash him cheaply and bet on the role expanding.
