Fantasy Impact
With Joe Flacco placed on the injured reserve, Allen will get first crack under center. Allen, a former sixth round pick, will see his first NFL action in Sunday’s Week 9 contest against the Browns. With Drew Lock targeting a return from the IR following the Broncos’ Week 10 bye, Allen may not be guaranteed more starts after this week. Allen can be picked up in two quarterback and super flex leagues as a streamer.
