Just like in the team&#8217;s preseason opener against the Green Bay Packers, Allen was more efficient than starter Breece Hall, who rushed for just 26 yards on seven carries.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Allen now has 67 rushing yards on 15 carries through two preseason contests, compared to Hall&#8217;s 35 yards on 10 carries. The former Wisconsin great is unlikely to claim the full-time workload when the 2025 season kicks off, both due to Hall&#8217;s talent as a pass-catcher and his status as a second-round draft selection. But it&#8217;s hard to ignore Allen&#8217;s current trajectory. At the least, he is showing enough production and consistency to begin to carve into Hall&#8217;s workload.<\/p>\n<p>None should be surprised if Allen improves on his 92-carry, 334-yard, two-touchdown rookie season in 2024. He is currently a popular pick for a sophomore breakout, especially as the Jets work to establish an identity under new head coach Aaron Glenn.<\/p>\n<p>Contact\/Follow\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/thebadgerswire\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:@TheBadgersWire;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">@TheBadgersWire<\/a>\u00a0on X (formerly Twitter) and like our page on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/badgerswire\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Facebook;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Facebook<\/a>\u00a0to follow ongoing coverage of Wisconsin <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsdata.usatoday.com\/football\/ncaaf\/teams\/wisconsin-badgers\/3442\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Badgers;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Badgers<\/a> news, notes and opinion<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>This article originally appeared on Badgers Wire: <a href=\"https:\/\/badgerswire.usatoday.com\/story\/sports\/college\/badgers\/football\/2025\/08\/17\/wisconsin-braelon-allen-preseason-stats-week-2\/85698164007\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Wisconsin football Braelon Allen stats Jets NFL preseason Week 2 game;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Wisconsin football Braelon Allen stats Jets NFL preseason Week 2 game<\/a><\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Former Wisconsin running back Braelon Allen delivered a strong performance in the New York Jets&#8216; preseason loss to&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":295232,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2051],"tags":[10318,487,7,345,226,1917,56,255,2321,2097,6,53244,6746],"class_list":{"0":"post-295231","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york-jets","8":"tag-braelon-allen","9":"tag-breece-hall","10":"tag-football","11":"tag-green-bay-packers","12":"tag-jets","13":"tag-new-york","14":"tag-new-york-giants","15":"tag-new-york-jets","16":"tag-newyork","17":"tag-newyorkjets","18":"tag-nfl","19":"tag-preseason-loss","20":"tag-rushing-yards"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115043885832398999","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/295231","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=295231"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/295231\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/295232"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=295231"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=295231"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=295231"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
