Braelon Allen at Chicago — Stepping Into Feature Work with Breece Hall Sidelined

With lead running back Breece Hall ruled out due to a quad injury, Allen takes over primary backfield duties for Sunday's matchup in Chicago. While Isaiah Davis will rotate in, the physical power back is set to absorb the majority of early-down carries and high-value goal-line opportunities.

Fantasy managers have responded aggressively, pushing Allen's start rate up over 64% this week. Our projections anticipate around 14 carries for 58 rushing yards with solid touchdown equity. Even in a modest scoring environment, his sudden volume spike makes him a confident RB2 or high-end flex starter.
