Bad luck would be better than the luck the New York Jets have had through four games. In addition to their 0-4 start, the Jets have placed second-year running back Braelon Allen on injured reserve after he sustained a knee injury in Monday night's loss to the Dolphins .
In a corresponding move, the Jets have signed veteran running back Khalil Herbert , who was recently waived by the Seahawks . A five-year veteran, the 27-year-old Herbert averaged a solid 4.8 yards per carry during his first four seasons in the NFL . In 2022, he rushed for a career-high 731 yards for the Bears , who selected him in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft .
Allen was injured on a kickoff return late in the second quarter and quickly ruled out. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported on Tues
