Braelon Allen Set for Lead Backfield Role With Hall Sidelined

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen is expected to handle a bellcow workload in Week 5 against the Cleveland Browns with starter Breece Hall remaining out due to a quadriceps injury. Allen took all 16 running back touches and played 32 of 34 offensive snaps during New York's Week 4 loss to the Bears, positioning him as the primary offensive engine while Hall continues his week-to-week recovery.
