Agrees to deal with Vikings
Allen is signing a three-year, $60 million contract with the Vikings, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The Commanders released Allen on Friday after he failed to generate trade interest on his old contract. His new deal isn't quite at the top of the market for defensive tackles, but it can't really be called a pay cut either. A pectoral tear limited the 30-year-old to eight regular-season games in his final season with the Commanders, but he had at least 5.5 sacks and 17 QB hits in each of the three preceding campaigns, maintaining a reputation as one of the league's more impactful interior pass rushers. Allen's work against the run has been less impressive, especially in recent years, but he's never lacked for tackles, topping 60 in six straight seasons before slumping to 53 in 2023 and then 19 in 2024 (301 snaps).

2017
Allen doesn't stand out in one particular area, but he's been a consistent presence along the Washington defensive line since 2017. His durability and ability as both a pass rusher and run defender are nearly unmatched compared to other interior defensive lineman. The result has been at least 60 tackles and five sacks in five of his last six seasons. Projecting forward, Allen is entering the final year of his second contract in the NFL and his age-30 campaign, and there are some signs of him potentially slowing down. His 53 total tackles in 2023 were the lowest of a full season in his career, and he also has posted his worst career missed tackle rate in each of the last two seasons. There's some risk in drafting Allen as a result, but he'll remain a stalwart of the Commanders' defensive unit even if his per game production continues to dip.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Gets look from Minnesota
Allen visited with the Vikings on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
The two-time Pro Bowler spent the first eight seasons of his career in Washington, but after being released last week, it may not take the defensive tackle long to find a new employer. Allen suited up for only eight regular-season games last year due to a torn pectoral muscle, but he returned in time to help Washington win its first playoff games since 2005 and had recorded 22.0 sacks in 49 contests over the prior three campaigns.
