After being used sparingly in his NFL debut with the New York Jets, mainly coming in when the game was out of hand, former Wisconsin Badgers running back Braelon Allen had a day to remember this past weekend, totaling 56 yards and two touchdowns.

Allen saw a significant uptick in volume, rushing seven times for 33 yards and a score, while catching two passes for 23 yards and a touchdown as well.

The 20-year-old running back became the youngest player ever in the NFL to score a touchdown since 1930, marking another accolade for the 2024 fourth-round pick.
