Running Back · New York Jets · Age 22 · Wisconsin · RB20 PPR (Week 4 2026)
Braelon Allen is ranked RB20 (overall #20) for the Week 4 of the 2026 NFL season in PPR fantasy football by Hayden of The Underdog Football Show.
Allen has played 84-of-88 snaps without Breece Hall (quad) on the field this season, and RB3 Isaiah Davis has been available in every game, yet hasn't played an offensive snap yet. Allen won't be targeted like Hall was, but he will gobble up just about everything the Jets have available. That's led to 20.1 expected half PPR points to the Jets' RB room through 3 weeks. I'd guess Allen will be a subpar player on that usage and that Davis will get involved moving forward, but even if he gets 80% of that usage (16.0 xFPs) and isn't great on them (career -12% over expected), Allen can be a very solid fantasy RB2 while Hall is out. For reference, Hall was the RB13 in expected points while Allen has mixed in. The matchup is a comforting one. The Bears defense is missing starters and was already going to be a weak unit up front. Chuba Hubbard hit them for 22.2 half PPR points in Week 1, then Aaron Jones hit 103 rushing yards in Week 2, and even the Eagles were able to run the ball against them on Monday Night Football. The Jets are projected for 19.5 points (27th), but they've been under-projected by the markets with Geno Smith playing decent ball behind a solid OL.
