28-Year-Old Defensive TackleDT
Denver Broncos
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Allen logged a career-high 911 defensive snaps in 2024, his second season with the Broncos. The results were mixed. As a pass rusher, Allen had by far his most impactful season, logging career-best marks in sacks (8.5) and quarterback hits (29), and he also matched his best mark in total quarterback hurries (38). However, his work in run defense seemed to take a corresponding step back, with his missed tackle rate specifically spiking to 17.9 percent. The latter won't particularly matter because Allen is locked into a significant role along the Denver defensive line, putting him in position to have another very productive 2025 campaign.

Gets sack Sunday
DTDenver Broncos
September 9, 2025
Allen recorded one tackle (one solo) including 1.0 sacks during Sunday's 20-12 win versus the Titans.
ANALYSIS
Allen led Denver's defensive tackles in snaps (44) in Week 1, so it would almost have been disappointing if he didn't get to rookie quarterback Cam Ward on a day where his team recorded six sacks. He might spend more time filling gaps against the run when the Broncos travel to take on Indianapolis in Week 2.

2022
Allen signed a lucrative deal to join the Broncos ahead of the 2023 season after spending the first four years of his career in Arizona. Both Allen's role and results stayed the same even with the change of scenery. He was used plenty as a pass rusher, but his primary task was to occupy offensive linemen in a 3-4 scheme. Given his effectiveness and the monetary commitment from the team, expect Allen to maintain a significant role along the Denver defensive line -- just don't count on much upside.
Allen found a new home with the Broncos this offseason, signing a three-year, $45.75 million deal. The 25-year-old defensive end spent the first four seasons of his career with the Cardinals, most recently recording career highs in both sacks (5.5) and passes defended (8), while accumulating 47 tackles (23 solo) in 2022. Allen joins a strong Denver defensive attack that should afford him many opportunities to build upon his totals from last season.
A third-round pick by the Cardinals in 2019, Allen has developed into perhaps the most reliable defensive lineman on the team through three campaigns, including 48 tackles, four sacks, three fumble recoveries (one for a touchdown) and one interception in 15 games last year. He's heading into his age-25 season, so assuming he recovers fully from January ankle surgery, Allen should take on the 41.1 defensive snaps per game he's averaged the past two years in 2022.
