Allen logged five total tackles (three solo) in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the 49ers.
EDGE Analysis
The Pro Bowl defensive tackle put up the third-most tackles he's recorded in a game this season Sunday, bringing his total up to 53 stops on the year. Allen has had another productive year for the Commanders' defense, appearing in all 16 of the team's games thus far and ranking second in both tackles for loss (10) and sacks (5.5). The 28-year-old will look to end the season on a positive note in Week 18's game against the Cowboys.

Allen recorded four tackles (three solo) including 1.5 sacks in Sunday's 31-19 loss versus the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Allen got into the sack column for the second straight game and for the fifth time this season in Week 11. He's undoubtedly one of the best defensive tackles in football, but the ability of offences to double-team him keeps him from being an elite IDP option.

Allen accumulated four solo tackles and one sack in the Commanders' Week 10 loss to the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
Allen's sack brings his season total up to four across 10 games. He saw the field for 62 defensive snaps (84 percent), which was his second highest total of the season. The defensive tackle will attempt to make it back-to-back games with a sack in Week 11 when Washington hosts the Giants.

Allen and the other Commanders defensive linemen are subject to trade rumors in advance of Tuesday's trade deadline, Jay Glazer reported on Fox NFL Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Allen has expressed some discontent with the organization and thus might be the most likely of the Commanders linemen to go. He's cleared to play for Sunday against the Eagles this week.

Allen (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game at the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Allen was able to manage a full practice Friday after being limited Wednesday and Thursday, leaving no doubt he'll play in Week 7. He'll remain a starter as one of the most impactful defensive tackles in the league Sunday.

Allen (knee) was a limited participant at Washington's practice Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Allen played 84 percent of the Commanders' defensive snaps while playing the entirety of their 24-16 win over Atlanta in Week 6, so his limited participation Wednesday is likely for rest purposes. His knee is worth monitoring as the week goes on and Allen will have two more practice sessions to increase his workload ahead of Sunday's divisional matchup with New York.

Allen had three tackles (two for a loss) and a sack in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Allen played in 51 of the team's 58 defensive snaps, a good sign that he is over the plantar fasciitis injury that limited him during training camp. The 2017 first-round pick has recorded at least six sacks in four of the past five seasons and is a key piece for Washington's defensive front. Allen and the Commanders will hit the road for Week 2 to face the Broncos on Sunday.

Allen wasn't listed on Washington's injury report Wednesday ahead of Sunday's game versus Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
It's a welcome sight for the Commanders, who now can count on the availability of their two-time Pro-Bowl defensive tackle until further notice. While one of football's most impactful defensive lineman, that doesn't necessarily translate to elite fantasy production.

Allen has been dealing with plantar fasciitis, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Head coach Ron Rivera indicated the issue is not serious. Still, it is worth noting, and it would not be surprising to see the Commanders exercise caution with Allen in the immediate future. The primary goal is to make sure the team's starting right defensive tackle is at full health when Week 1 comes around.
