Dontaie Allen suffers broken collarbone

Kentucky signee Dontaie Allen will be on the shelf a little longer than anticipated due to another injury.

According to KSR, Allen was in a vehicle accident that broke his collarbone, although it could have been more severe than it initially was.

It should not present any problems for Allen long-term, as collarbone injuries are somewhat common, and most of the time, athletes seem to make a full recovery (Packers QB Aaron Rodgers recently went through this).

Collarbone injuries typically take four months to fully heal and re-gain strength in it. So Allen will have to rehab both his injured knee and his broken collarbone to get ready for the upcoming season.
