Braelon Allen Racks Up 134 Yards but Misses Goal-Line Opportunity

Sunday, October 25, 2:29 PM

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen has exceeded 100 scrimmage yards in three consecutive games, although he has scored only once during Breece Hall's absence and could see a significantly reduced workload if Hall returns when the Jets host the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 8. Allen rushed for 104 yards on 17 carries and caught six of seven targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 28-25 loss to the Miami Dolphins, finishing with 19.4 PPR fantasy points. His six receptions were a season high, and he handled 17 of New York's 21 rushing attempts with Hall (quadriceps) inactive for a fourth consecutive game. Allen's biggest missed opportunity came in the fourth quarter, when his 10-yard run brought the Jets to Miami's one-yard line. He lost a yard on second-and-goal, and New York settled for a field goal after Geno Smith was sacked on third down.

Jadarian Price Still Worth Stashing Despite Backfield Uncertainty

Wednesday, October 21, 8:06 AM

Seattle Seahawks running back Jadarian Price (chest) remains on injured reserve, and his eventual workload looks increasingly uncertain with Zach Charbonnet (knee) closing in on his season debut. The first-round rookie rushed 28 times for 119 yards and caught four passes for 21 yards in three games before aggravating his chest injury in practice ahead of Week 4. Head coach Mike Macdonald said Monday that Price was doing well but gave no timetable for his return, while Charbonnet could play against Kansas City this weekend. Emanuel Wilson and George Holani have handled much of the backfield work during their absences, which adds to the uncertainty around Price's eventual role. He's eligible to return in Week 8 against Chicago, so he's a reasonable drop in eight- and 10-team leagues without an available IR spot. Still, his first-round pedigree and potential second-half involvement make him worth stashing in 12-team leagues and deeper, particularly for managers with IR flexibility.
