Watch - New York Jets might have gotten a Day 3 steal in Braelon Allen

Braelon Allen is turning heads in New York Jets training camp. The rookie running back from Wisconsin is coming off an impressive collegiate career.

The Jets took Allen in the fourth round of April’s NFL draft. He was their third selection in the draft.

In his three years at Wisconsin, he rushed for 3,494 yards and 35 rushing touchdowns. Last year he had 28 catches for 131 yards – both numbers were career highs during his collegiate career.

At Wisconsin, Allen was named all-Big Ten all three of his seasons in college.

At 6-foot-1 and 235 pounds, Allen has the potential to be a nice complement to starting running back Breece Hall.

With his strong build and solid speed, Allen is certainly an intriguing option in the Jets’ backfield. He can be a good change-of-pace running back as well as a goal-line and shot-yardage option in the backfield.

He also showed at Wisconsin that he has some wiggle and elusiveness in his hard-running style.
