Jets' Braelon Allen, Vikings' Jordan Addison set for increased roles
Summary

In NFL Week 4, Braelon Allen of the New York Jets and Jordan Addison of the Minnesota Vikings are expected to have expanded roles due to injuries on their teams. With Breece Hall sidelined, Allen is anticipated to lead the Jets' backfield against the Chicago Bears. Addison's role increases as he steps in for injured teammate Justin Jefferson, coming off a strong performance in Week 3. New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller, however, is likely to see limited opportunities despite Travis Etienne's injury, as Alvin Kamara is expected to take the lead. Performance in this game could impact their fantasy outlook moving forward.
