Allen worked out with the Eagles on Tuesday, Howard Balzer of GoPHNX.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Allen now appears to have recovered from a biceps injury he suffered in December. The 26-year-old has spent the entirety of his six-year career with the Steelers, registering 57 tackles (34 solo) in 48 games and will now look for another chance elsewhere.

Pittsburgh placed Allen (biceps) on its injured reserve list Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Allen underwent surgery to repair his biceps after he sustained a serious injury in Pittsburgh's win versus Las Vegas in Week 16, and he'll now spend the rest of this regular season on injured reserve. He played exclusively on special teams in 2022, so the Steelers will have to find a way to replace his production in that phase.

Coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that Allen will miss the final two games of Pittsburgh's regular season recovering from surgery he underwent to repair his biceps after Week 16, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

Allen played all 230 of his snaps in 2022 on special teams, so the Steelers will now have to try to find a way to replace his production on that front. The 26-year-old linebacker will finish this regular season with 12 tackles.

Allen appears to have underwent arm surgery following Saturday's win over the Raiders, Mark Kaboly of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Allen sustained an unspecified arm injury in this past weekend's matchup against Las Vegas, and his recent Instagram stories from his personal account show him laying in a hospital bed with his arm wrapped in a sling. While this could suggest that the 26-year-old won't return for the remainder of the season, further information regarding his Week 17 availability will likely be revealed within the upcoming days.

Allen was released by the Steelers on Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Allen failed to play in a preseason game this year while dealing with an ankle issue, but he appears to be healthy upon his release.

Allen will likely return to the Steelers' practice squad ahead of the 2022 season.

Allen (ankle) is unlikely to participate during Saturday's preseason game against the Seahawks, Alan Saunders of PittsburghSportsNow.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Allen was seen not suited up ahead of the exhibition game against Seattle after sustaining an apparent ankle injury at some point earlier in the week. In his absence Saturday, fellow backups Buddy Johnson, Mark Robinson and Robert Spillane figure to see increased usage at inside linebacker for Pittsburgh.

Allen signed his restricted free agent tender with the Steelers on Thursday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Allen will thus remain in Pittsburgh for at least one more season after inking the contract tender extended to him by the team. Over the past two seasons, the 2018 fifth-round pick accumulated 43 tackles in 30 games while playing primarily on special teams, with 393 snaps coming in that phase during that span. The 25-year-old appeared on just 59 defensive snaps in 2021, and going forward should continue to slot in as a reserve behind starting inside linebackers Devin Bush and Myles Jack.

Allen (illness) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Allen missed Week 16 after testing positive for the virus but has now cleared the health and safety protocols. The 25-year-old has played only 17 defensive snaps in 14 games this season and has mostly contributed on special teams.

EDGE Analysis

Allen has played mainly on special teams this season, but his status for Sunday's game against Kansas City is now in jeopardy. Ulysees Gilbert could see a slight uptick in playing time if Allen is out Sunday.
