"Allen's deal, which will begin in 2026, includes $69.5 million in guarantees, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter, and like Sutton's deal will run through the 2029 season. Allen is in the final year of the three-year $45.75 million contract he signed in 2023 with Denver."
"In the rotational world of defensive line play, Allen is the rarest kind of high-volume player. He played a whopping 89% of the Broncos' defensive snaps last season -- he was named a second-team All-Pro -- after he had played 81% of the defensive snaps in 2023."
"That stamina and his versatility -- he plays both end and tackle in some defensive groupings for the Broncos -- has consistently drawn praise from coach Sean Payton."
