Brandon Allen
QB - San Francisco 49ers
Availability
Brandon Allen completed 17-of-29 passing attempts for 199 yards, one touchdown, and one interception and had a lost fumble in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Green Bay Packers.
Fantasy Impact
Allen got the start for the 49ers with Brock Purdy (shoulder) out of the lineup, but he didn't have a very good game. He committed two turnovers on the day and wasn't able to lead San Francisco's offense to more than ten points against Green Bay, which led to them suffering a blowout loss. The 49ers' skill-position players will continue to struggle for however long Purdy remains out of the lineup moving forward.
49ers QB Brandon Allen will start vs. the Green Bay Packers in Week 12 in place of the injured Brock Purdy.
Fantasy Impact
Allen will start in his first game as a 49er on Sunday. His last regular season start came with the Bengals in 2021.
The 49ers named Brandon Allen as their backup quarterback.
Fantasy Impact
Allen will backup Brock Purdy with Josh Dobbs behind them both. Allen re-signed with San Francisco back in March.
The 49ers have re-signed QB Brandon Allen.
Fantasy Impact
With Sam Darnold expected to leave the team in free agency, the 49ers secure the backup QB role by bringing back Brandon Allen. The 31-year-old did not appear in a game for the 49ers last season, but will provide a veteran presence in the quarterback room.
Brandon Allen has signed with the San Francisco 49ers.
Fantasy Impact
Allen will join a very young quarterback room with Brock Purdy and Trey Lance. Although Allen will likely hold little fantasy value, he will be a mentor and an insurance option should Lance and Purdy not be fully healthy by training camp.
