Davis Allen News: Commands snap share in loss

Allen secured five of six targets for 34 yards during Sunday's 23-15 loss to the Dolphins.

With Colby Parkinson's role shrinking over the past few weeks, Allen took over the primary tight end role this week, and the second-year tight end out of Clemson enjoyed season-high usage (56 out of 70 snaps on offense) to go along with a massive uptick in production. Parkinson (11 snaps) and Hunter Long (nine snaps) both failed to record a target in the contest. A tough task lies in wait in Week 11 against a Patriots defense that just held Cole Kmet to two catches for 13 yards as part of a complete shutdown of the Bears' offense.
