Jets RB Braelon Allen has a chance to be Breece Hall's primary backup

Rich Cimini

Jun 25 · 11:42 AM EDT

Braelon Allen, a 2024 fourth-round pick, wasn't known for his receiving in college -- only 49 catches in three seasons at Wisconsin -- but he demonstrated plenty of ability in OTAs and minicamp. He showed excellent ball skills and terrific body control. He's 235 pounds, yet he was able to split out and play like a smaller back. "If you go back and watch his tape at Wisconsin, he caught the ball well," Jets running backs coach Tony Dews said. Allen has a chance to be Breece Hall's primary backup.

Related Players: Isaiah Davis, Israel Abanikanda

Fantasy Impact:

There was slight concern that Allen would only be a rotational goal line back but if he flashes some receiving skills, he could have slight standalone value. He's the back to keep an eye on if anything were to happen to Hall.

Jets to sign RB Tarik Cohen to one-year deal

Jets are signing free-agent RB Tarik Cohen to a one-year deal. Cohen was one of the NFL’s top return specialists and a receiving threat before injuries derailed his career. Cohen last played in the NFL in 2020, but now will attempt his comeback with the Jets.

Related Players: Israel Abanikanda, Braelon Allen, Isaiah Davis

Fantasy Impact:

It feels like ages ago, but Cohen does have back-to-back 70+ reception seasons on his resume. If he can make the final roster, he could be able to take advantage of the new kickoff rules for the Jets. He shouldn't be considered a fantasy option at this point.
