According to Ian Rapoport, Jets RB Braelon Allen has been diagnosed with a sprained MCL. 

Rapoport adds it’s not clear how much time Allen will miss but he’s likely going to be placed on injured reserve, which means at least four games.

He’s in the second year of a four-year, $4,548,708 rookie contract that includes $528,708 fully guaranteed.

In 2025, Allen has appeared in three games for the Jets and rushed 14 times for 50 yards and a touchdown. He also has two receptions for 17 yards.
