Marcus Allen

Marcus Allen went from a ton of hype to lost name to stud all in one preseason. His rookie preseason.

This man was looked at as the steal of the Steelers draft until August. Then, the preseason started and he was no where to be found. When he didn’t take a snap during their second preseason game, people began to believe he was a practice squad player for his rookie campaign.

Then, he came through with a big game against the Titans and everyone began to talk again. Which leaves him riding a fine line with one preseason game left.

Allen needs to come through with one more solid performance if he wants any chance of making the final 53-man roster. He’ll sneak his way in if he’s capable of showing he can make plays with the second-team.
