Daily News | Devon Allen is still hurdling obstacles for the Eagles and himself
remain committed to two-time Olympic hurdler and wide receiver Devon Allen.
“I didn’t really expect anything less,” Allen said. “When I first got here, I knew the team was special. Just to progress myself as an athlete, it was a lot of fun. This organization really helped me develop. I learned so much from all the great guys here.Allen spent the entire season on the practice squad after he flashed in the summer. During a preseason game against the Cleveland Browns, Allen hauled in a diving 55-yard touchdown reception from Reid Sinnett.
The team was intrigued by his world-class speed and saw potential to utilize him as a gunner on special teams and as a developmental receiver.“Training is kind of similar, honestly,” Allen said while comparing football to track and field. “Between being a sprinter and what I do on the football field with being explosive, being powerful, and running. So that’s something I do everyday on the football field.
“Those guys are the epitome of being a professional,” Allen said. “There is some natural ability and physical gifts that they have, but you can tell by their work ethic – Smitty is here everyday before everyone at 6 a.m. in the weight room doing extra stuff, whether it’s catching 200 tennis balls, whatever, he’s been doing that every morning since OTAs. A.J. spends a lot of time on his craft. You can’t just show up and do it. It’s pretty inspiring. I’ve learned so much from them.
