Jim Leonard provides injury update on Braelon Allen, plan for remaining games
The Wisconsin Badgers currently sit at 6-5 overall after they squeaked past the Nebraska Cornhuskers on Saturday afternoon, 15-14. The Badgers were propelled by their two talented tailbacks, Braelon Allen and Chez Mellusi, who pounded and pummeled their way to the tune of 190 combined rushing yards. Following the victory, Wisconsin head coach Jim Leonard provided an update on his superstar tailback Braelon Allen and how he plans to manage his workload in the upcoming weeks. Jim Leonard discusses managing his star tailback’s reps – “We have to be smart with him. We know what he’s going through. If he’s banged up it’s probably not getting better until this thing ends off, so trying to be smart. Having Chez back will be a huge help,” Leonard said. “Because he’s a warrior, he wants to play, he wants every touch, he doesn’t want to come off the field. Just proud of him, of what he’s going through, but we have to continue to be smart with how we use him, when we use him. And I think that affects how he finishes runs which, for a big back, his style of play, the way he finishes, the punishing style that he has, we want him to do that, but he’s only got so many hits in that body every week right now.”
Braelon Allen is clearly one of the nation’s very best
Braelon Allen has been working through a left shoulder injury he sustained against the Purdue Boilermakers on Oct. 22. He also exited the Maryland game briefly on two occasions when they played on November 5. Leonard is wise to manage his reps and closely monitor his star tailback’s injury situation. After rushing for over 90 yards on Saturday against Nebraska, the sophomore tailback has officially rushed for over 1,000 yards in back-to-back seasons. Allen has unquestionably cemented his status as one of the top running back prospects in all of college football..

What does Braelon Allen have in store for year two?
Braelon Allen blossomed into one of the best running backs in the entire country a year ago, and the now 18-year-old will be participating in his first spring camp.
After making the jump to college a year early last summer, it took Braelon a few games to get a chance, but from there he displayed why he was a four-star talent out of high school. Playing in 12 games, Braelon tallied 1,268 yards (6.8 ypc) and 12 touchdowns. Already a physically imposing specimen with incredible balance and strength, how Braelon Allen continues to round out his game will be exciting to watch this spring.
The Badgers worked to get Braelon more involved in the passing game as the season wore on a year ago, but with a full off-season, pass protection is an area of potential growth that could help Wisconsin become more potent.
