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.

Kyle Allen Picked Off Twice In Loss To Browns
Houston Texans quarterback Kyle Allen was 20-for-39 for 201 yards in Sunday's loss to the Cleveland Browns. He was picked off twice, including on his first pass attempt of the game, and he managed to salvage his day just a bit with a garbage-time touchdown to Nico Collins. Through two starts, Allen hasn't really shown much. He's struggled in the first half of both contests and hasn't been an upgrade over Davis Mills. He shouldn't be on your fantasy radar outside of a deep superflex league.

Kyle Allen A Risky Option For Week 13
Houston Texans quarterback Kyle Allen made his first start for the team last week against Miami, throwing a pair of interceptions in the team's loss. He threw for 215 yards, with most of that coming in the second half with the game out of reach. There's not much fantasy upside for Allen heading into Sunday's meeting with the Cleveland Browns, who allow an average of 216 passing yards per game. Cleveland's defense ranks 30th in points allowed per game, but Allen's probably not talented enough to really take advantage of that.

Kyle Allen Picked Off Twice Against Dolphins
Houston Texans quarterback Kyle Allen was 26-for-39 in Sunday's loss to the Dolphins, throwing for 215 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. Allen managed a couple of good drives in the second half to boost his overall numbers, but his first start for Houston was largely disappointing, and the 215 yards don't really tell the real story about how much Allen struggled. If he sticks as Houston's starter, he's a low-end QB2 at best.

Kyle Allen Confirmed As Week 12 Starter
Houston Texans head coach Lovie Smith confirmed on Friday that quarterback Kyle Allen will start under center in Week 12 against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. The Davis Mills experiment is over for the time being and Allen will get his first start since the 2020 season with the Washington Commanders. Not much should be expected of the 26-year-old in this Texans offense, but he will be a low-end QB2 option for desperate fantasy managers in superflex leagues this weekend. And on the bright side, the Dolphins defense has allowed the second-most fantasy points to signal-callers this year through 10 games played. The move from Mills to Allen has to be seen as at least a small upgrade for the likes of Brandin Cooks and Nico Collins.

Kyle Allen Expected To Start Over Davis Mills In Week 12
Houston Texans head coach Lovie Smith told the media on Wednesday that he wouldn't announce a starting quarterback for the Week 12 game against the Miami Dolphins, but Kyle Allen is expected to start over the struggling Davis Mills. Allen will see first-team repetitions in practice on Wednesday, putting him in line to start for the first time this year against Miami. The 26-year-old Allen isn't going to light the world on fire in this Texans offense, but he'll be in play as a low-end QB2 for those in superflex leagues if he's indeed starting under center on Sunday. Allen has played in just six games (four starts) the last two years for the Washington Commanders and ended up going 72-for-106 for 730 yards, five touchdowns and one interception.
