Draft Scouting Report
Rating: 73.95 (Roster depth)
Pro Comparison: Jonathan Ward
Summary
LeQuint Allen is a tall, long-legged RB with a North-South style. He flashes cutting ability but isn’t overly elusive, relying on sharp lateral cuts at the line to find creases. He has plus vision between the tackles but lacks the quick hip sink to hit cutback lanes efficiently. He runs with good energy when his OL is in rhythm but won’t create much on his own. Shows above-average burst when a lane appears and can occasionally make a defender miss, though his change of direction takes an extra beat. His standout trait is his vision, paired with strong receiving ability -- capable of running WR routes with reliable hands and natural ball skills. While not a dynamic mover, he maximizes his talent and adds value in the passing game.

Jaguars' LeQuint Allen: Pass-catching RB heads to Jaguars
The Jaguars selected Allen in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 236th overall.
The Jaguars drafted running back Bhayshul Tuten in the fourth round, so Allen enters a crowded backfield that already had Travis Etienne and Tank Bigsby. Allen declared for the NFL Draft after three years at Syracuse, two of which he served as the starter. Over those two seasons, Allen produced 2,085 rushing yards and 25 touchdowns on 473 carries (4.4 YPC) in addition to 102 receptions for 731 yards and five touchdowns. While Allen handled a hefty workload in college and started 27 straight games, his frame (6-foot, 204 pounds) and upright running style will make it difficult to maintain such a role in the NFL. Nevertheless, Allen adds versatility to the Jaguars' backfield, as he naturally catches balls and makes plays out of the backfield while also showing an ability to line up as a receiver.
