2026 NFL Draft Prospect
- Height: 5-11
- Weight: 216
- School: Penn State
- Class: Senior
| PRO | CON |
|---|---|
| Allen has a powerful lower half which he uses for contact balance. Plays with great leverage when meeting a defender. Pairs patience and vision behind the line with the explosiveness to attack the gap quickly. His durability is tremendous. | Not a speedster back. Prides himself on power more than pace. Susceptible to a speed rusher in pass protection and not a legitimate threat as a receiver. Not shifty enough to make people miss. |
OVERVIEW: Alongside Nicholas Singleton, Allen helped establish an impressive backfield duo for Penn State. Although the two possess some similar qualities, Singleton was the speed while Allen was the power. However, Allen still found ways to be productive despite just one football to share. He finished the 2025 season with 1,303 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns. He also displayed one of the best abilities … availability. Over four seasons, he played in all 41 games with the Nittany Lions.
