According to Dennis Waszak Jr. of the Associated Press, the New York Jets have listed rookie running back Braelon Allen (back) as questionable for Sunday's match against the Los Angeles Rams. Allen logged two limited sessions to open the week but was upgraded to a full participant on Friday. However, the rookie still carries a questionable tag. Allen saw an increased workload in Week 14 with Breece Hall sidelined as he tallied 43 yards on 11 attempts and added 38 yards on four receptions. Even if Allen is able to suit up on Sunday, he should not be viewed as a viable fantasy option as Breece Hall will be expected to lead the backfield. Seeing that Hall was not on the injury report all week suggests he is past his minor knee injury and will take on his normal workhorse role.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Daijun Edwards turned three carries into 28 yards and a rushing touchdown while adding a reception for nine yards in the team's 20-12 preseason loss to the Houston Texans. He also picked up 27 yards on his lone kick return. The undrafted rookie made an impact immediately upon checking in at the start of the fourth quarter, exploding for a 24-yard gain on his second attempt. He capped off the drive with a one-yard score on the very next play. The Georgia product tallied 1078 yards from scrimmage and 13 touchdowns in his final collegiate season and could certainly push for a roster spot in Pittsburgh, especially given his usage on special teams. Edwards will look to make the most of his opportunities once again next week when the Steelers face the Buffalo Bills.
