While Allen’s career was far from great, he became a fan favorite during the Eagles’ run to their only Super Bowl victory in 2108 due to his connection with the always vocal Chris Long. Come the offseason, Allen landed in Tampa Bay where he would appear in 13 games, adding .5 sacks and ten total tackles.
