Baltimore Ravens: Can Javorius Allen lead the team in receptions?

Since being drafted in the fourth round of the 2015 NFL Draft, Javorius “Buck” Allen has been underwhelming as a pure runner, as evident by his career rushing stats. This is why Alex Collins headlines the running back group in 2018, as the third-year pro showed off excellent running ability compared to Allen.

However, where Javorius Allen is lacking in rushing ability he makes up for as a receiver. In the two (out of three) seasons that Allen has played 16 games, he has a combined 91 receptions. That’s no accident. You don’t just stumble your way into 91 receptions in 32 healthy games (94 career receptions).
