Jets' Frank Reich says Geno Smith ditched pass, checked to 'perfect play' on Braelon Allen's TD run

Braelon Allen ran for a career-high 116 yards and scored the decisive touchdown after Geno Smith checked from a pass to a run.

  • On Sunday, October 11, New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith audibled to a run, handing the ball to Braelon Allen for a 22-yard touchdown that secured a 17-12 victory against the Cleveland Browns.
  • Offensive coordinator Frank Reich credits the team's success to the 'one-two' backfield combination of Allen and RB1 Breece Hall, which he considers the best running back duo in the NFL.
  • Allen finished with 24 carries for 116 rushing yards, a career-high performance; Reich praised his physicality, describing the runner as a 'big man with a little man's feet.'
  • With Hall sidelined by a quadriceps injury that head coach Aaron Glenn labeled 'week-to-week,' Allen has stepped in as the primary ball carrier for the Jets.
  • Ahead of the matchup against the New England Patriots, Allen is expected to lead the backfield again as Hall remains unlikely to suit up for the contest.
