During his time at Oregon, Allen was a two-sport athlete, competing in both football and track and field. In football, he was a standout receiver, catching 54 passes for 919 yards and 8 touchdowns in his collegiate career. He was also a key contributor on special teams as a kickoff returner.
However, Allen's real success has come on the track. He is a two-time NCAA champion in the 110-meter hurdles, and has also competed in the Olympic Games as a member of the United States track and field team. In addition to his hurdling success, he is also a strong sprinter, with personal bests of 10.00 seconds in the 100-meter dash and 20.31 seconds in the 200-meter dash.
Despite his success in both sports, Allen ultimately chosen to pursue his football career.
