Kyle Allen Leads Touchdown Drive on Saturday

Detroit Lions quarterback Kyle Allen completed all five of his pass attempts for 66 yards and a touchdown in the team's preseason finale on Saturday against the Houston Texans. Allen was removed from the game in the first half after playing just two offensive series, which indicates that the 29-year-old's role with the team is secure. Allen has played well this preseason, completing 35 of his 44 pass attempts for 401 yards and five touchdowns. He is a lock to open the season as the Lions' QB2 behind Jared Goff.

Kyle Allen Throws Two Touchdown Passes on Saturday, Leading Lions' Backup QB Competition?

Detroit Lions quarterback Kyle Allen got the start on Saturday in the team's third preseason game against the Miami Dolphins and played well. Allen completed 14 of 17 pass attempts for 124 yards and two touchdowns, finishing the night with a passer rating of 136.3. The veteran played the entire first half before being replaced by third-year signal-caller Hendon Hooker at the start of the third quarter. Allen and Hooker are competing for the QB2 job in Detroit behind Jared Goff, but Allen has now significantly outplayed Hooker in back-to-back preseason games. Based on how the two have performed this summer, Allen should be considered the favorite to open the season as the primary backup quarterback for the Lions.

Kyle Allen Throws for Two Touchdowns in Preseason Win

Detroit Lions quarterback Kyle Allen completed seven of eight pass attempts for 120 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions in his team's 17-10 preseason win over the Atlanta Falcons on Friday night. He entered the game in the second quarter, replacing Hendon Hooker at quarterback. Allen and Hooker are competing for the backup quarterback job in Detroit behind Jared Goff. Both players struggled in the team's preseason opener against the Los Angeles Chargers, but Allen significantly outplayed Hooker against Atlanta. The Lions' usage of their two reserve quarterbacks will be something to monitor in the team's third preseason game against the Miami Dolphins on August 16.

Kyle Allen Struggles in Preseason Debut

Detroit Lions quarterback Kyle Allen had a rough night in his first preseason appearance with the team against the Los Angeles Chargers. Allen started the game and played the entire first half, finishing 9-for-14 through the air for 91 passing yards, zero touchdowns, and two interceptions. The 29-year-old is competing with Hendon Hooker for the backup job behind Jared Goff in Detroit. Allen has played for five teams in his seven-year NFL career, appearing in 31 games (19 starts). For his career, he's completed 62.7% of his 705 career pass attempts for 4,753 yards with 26 touchdowns and 21 interceptions. Without a proven backup quarterback in place, an injury to Goff would significantly impact the outlook of Detroit's skill-position players.

Lions Add Kyle Allen For QB Depth

The Detroit Lions agreed to terms with veteran free-agent quarterback Kyle Allen on Thursday on an undisclosed deal, a source tells NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Allen will head back to the NFC after spending the 2024 campaign as the No. 3 signal-caller for the Pittsburgh Steelers behind both Russell Wilson and Justin Fields. The 29-year-old will now join a Lions quarterback room that already includes starter Jared Goff, Hendon Hooker and Jake Fromm. Allen will likely be competing with Hooker for the No. 2 role in training camp this summer. The former undrafted free agent is now on his sixth different team as he heads into his eighth NFL season. Allen began his career in 2018 with the Carolina Panthers and has completed 62.7% of his 705 career attempts for 4,753 yards, 26 touchdowns and 21 interceptions.

Kyle Allen Signs With Steelers

Free-agent quarterback Kyle Allen signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to Ari Meirov of the 33rd Team. Allen, a six-year NFL veteran, has thrown for 4,734 yards, 26 touchdowns, and 21 interceptions through his first 30 NFL games with the Commanders, Panthers, Texans, and Bills. With Russell Wilson and Justin Fields now on the roster, Allen is likely competing to be the team's emergency quarterback and scout team signal-caller. The Steelers carried three quarterbacks on the roster last season, so he has a path to sticking around beyond the offseason and training camp. However, he can be safely ignored in fantasy football, regardless of format.

Kyle Allen Looking Like Backup QB

Buffalo Bills quarterbacks Kyle Allen and Matt Barkley have an open competition for the backup QB role in training camp, but Allen has displayed a clear higher level of ability through all of his repetitions in training camp than Barkley. It comes down to arm strength and decision-making, and Allen has shown a consistent ability to zip passes into tighter windows in the intermediate areas of the field. Barkley has shown some accuracy issues on his touch throws. If the separation of ability continues between the two signal-callers, it might not take much longer for Allen to get all of the second-team time in training camp as the backup behind Josh Allen entering the 2023 regular season.

Kyle Allen Likely To Win Backup Job In Buffalo

The Buffalo Bills' backup quarterback job will be more of a competition in 2023 than it was this past year between Kyle Allen and Matt Barkley. Allen is the likeliest to win the job behind Josh Allen with the Bills successfully getting Barkley to the practice squad in past years. Kyle Allen, 27, has made 19 career starts in the NFL in his five seasons, with two coming last year for the Houston Texans. In 23 career games with the Panthers, Commanders and Texans, he has completed 62.6 percent of his passes for 4,734 yards, 26 touchdowns and 21 interceptions. Even if Kyle Allen is forced into starting duties at some point in 2023, he won't be anything more than a low-end QB2 play in superflex leagues.

Bills Sign Kyle Allen On Wednesday

The Buffalo Bills are signing former Houston Texans quarterback Kyle Allen to an undisclosed deal on Wednesday, according to a source. He has 19 career starts in the NFL and will now back up Josh Allen. The 27-year-old should be Josh's primary backup in his new home. He spent the 2022 season as a backup with the Texans and started in just two games, going 46-for-78 for 416 yards, two touchdowns and four interceptions. In his 19 career starts over five seasons with the Texans, Carolina Panthers and Washington Commanders, Kyle Allen has a 62.6% completion percentage, 4,734 yards, 26 touchdowns and 21 interceptions in 23 games played. He won't have any fantasy appeal unless Josh Allen misses time due to injury in 2023.

Jeff Driskel Active Over Kyle Allen In Week 14

Houston Texans quarterback Kyle Allen is a healthy scratch for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. In his absence, Jeff Driskel, who was promoted from the practice squad earlier this weekend, will back up Davis Mills. Allen is coming off a two-game stint in which he tossed four interceptions and just two touchdowns. Not only did he lose his starting job, but he won't even suit up in Week 14.
