Agrees to massive five-year deal
Allen and the Jaguars agreed to terms Wednesday on a five-year, $150 million contract, Nick Shook of NFL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jacksonville is about a month removed from placing the franchise tag on Allen, who tallied a franchise-record 17.5 sacks last season, but the team's stated goal has always been to negotiate a long-term contract with the two-time Pro Bowler. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Allen's new deal includes $88 million guaranteed, while the franchise tag would've had him play out the 2024 season on a salary of just over $24 million. Allen looked convincing as one of the league's elite pass-rushers in 2024, in which he also logged 66 tackles (43 solo), one interception and two forced fumbles across 17 regular-season appearances. He'll come off the board as one of the top players at his position in IDP formats in 2024 drafts.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Candidate for franchise tag
The Jaguars could use the franchise tag on Allen, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Allen had a well-timed breakout season in 2023 -- he posted 17.5 sacks while also forcing two fumbles -- as he is set to hit free agency for the first time in his career. The Jaguars reportedly are set on keeping him on the team, with the primary question being whether the two sides can reach a long-term deal. The team also plans to keep Calvin Ridley on the roster, another free agent, but only one could be given the franchise tag.
