Jonathan Allen dealt with the muck.
He kicked off the Washington Commanders’ run of five straight seasons with a first round defensive pick in 2017. He was arguably the best of a bunch that included Montez Sweat, Daron Payne and Chase Young (decent!) as well as Jamin Davis (less so!). He was a trusted veteran under the most dysfunctional regime in the NFL, overseeing the defense through the end of Dan Snyder’s disastrous ownership.
Then came the light. Josh Harris bought the team, seemingly ending an era of harassment and alienating fans. Jayden Daniels brought deliverance from the second overall pick of the 2024 NFL Draft, rising to offensive rookie of the year honors. The Commanders won a pair of playoff games and advanced to the NFC Conference Championship for the first time since Color Me Badd was a pop radio mainstay.
And now Allen wants out.
The eight-year veteran was reportedly granted permission to seek a trade this offseason. It’s tough timing, but it makes sense. He’s in the final year of a four-year, $72 million contract extension. The Commanders just had their best season despite the fact he played just eight games. Allen wants another big money deal, likely the last of his career. Washington may not want to pay that as it continues a roster makeover under Harris and Dan Quinn, the head coach hired in 2024.
Allen will be 30 years old in the 2025 season. He still has plenty to offer a team up front, though his list of suitors may not be filled with contenders. So who could want the two-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle?
