Allen's between-the-tackles style fills critical short-yardage gap in Commanders backfield construction.

Sixth-round rookie offers a distinctly different, complementary identity to the Commanders' backfield; his physical, low-center-of-gravity style is built for running between the tackles and grinding out tough yards against stacked boxes—essential short-yardage and goal-line versatility that the roster would otherwise lack if Henry were kept instead, making Allen a more logical puzzle piece for the final 53-man roster.
