Toledo's Preseason TE1 with Elite 4.62 Speed and Backup Grit
John Allen stands out as Toledo's preseason No. 1 tight end, combining rare 4.62-second 40-yard dash speed with the intensity of a backup who still caught 10 passes for 61 yards. His differentiator is elite athleticism for a TE—rare speed that creates separation—paired with a high-intensity, team-first personality that thrives even without starting stats. No injury history is noted, and his 2024 backup role shows resilience. You should care because Allen offers a unique speed-TE profile that can transform a team's red-zone and vertical passing game. He is a perfect fit for any team needing a dynamic, athletic tight end who brings both speed and reliability.
