The Boston College Eagles have been very active on the recruiting trail this week, and that trend continued with yet another scholarship offer to a talented 2026 prospect.

3-Star wide receiver Brayden Allen became the third player this week to receive an Eagles offer, taking to social media to share the news on Friday.

Hailing from Lafayette Christian Academy in Lafayette, Louisiana, Allen stands at 6-foot-1, 175 lbs. As a junior in 2024, he hauled in 55 receptions for over 1,100 yards and ten touchdowns. He also saw time on the defensive side of the ball, compiling seven tackles and a pass deflection.

He is a speedy target with the ability to both stretch the field and work underneath in short yardage situations. He has sure hands and also has experience as both a punt and kick returner, making him a versatile talent.

The Eagles currently hold nine commitments for the 2026 recruiting class and rank No. 17 in the nation, according to 247Sports' composite ranking. If Bill O'Brien and his staff can continue their hot streak throughout this offseason, Boston College could be in store for one of the top classes in recent memory.
