The Broncos placed Allen on injured reserve with a hamstring injury Monday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Allen missed back-to-back games while dealing with a hamstring injury before returning for Sunday's win over the Cardinals, playing 21 special-teams snaps in this contest. However, it appears this issue has continued to plague the 27-year-old, and he'll now be shut down for the remainder of the regular season while on IR. Allen was signed by Denver in late November to help fill in for linebacker Jonas Griffith (ankle), who has yet to return from IR.

Rotowire
Allen (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of the Broncos' game against the Panthers.

Jaguars' Dakota Allen: Ruled out for Week 11
Rotowire
Allen (shoulder) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against San Francisco.
Allen has been one of the best defensive players for the Jaguars this season, so there's no question his absence will be greatly felt. This will mean Shaquille Quarterman might be in line to see a few extra snaps behind starters Damien Wilson and Myles Jack, though Chapelle Russell might also be in contention for a slight uptick in playing time.

Rotowire
Allen (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Colts.

Rotowire
Allen was forced out of Sunday's game versus the Chargers with an ankle injury, Tad Dickman of the Jaguars' official site reports.
Allen started Sunday's game at strong-side linebacker but left early in the first quarter. He was initially considered probable to return but downgraded to questionable after going to the locker room. Myles Jack (ankle) is inactive Sunday as well, so Kamalei Correa and Quincy Williams should be every-down linebackers for the time being.

Rotowire
Allen (foot) was a non participant during Wednesday's practice.
Allen filled in as a starter last week for the injured Myles Jack (ankle), racking up seven tackles (five solo) in the loss to Houston. Now it appears Allen is dealing with the foot issue, leaving the linebacking corps thin at the moment. If both Allen and Jack are forced to miss Week 6, Cassius Marsh and Kamalei Correa would be in line for starting roles at linebacker.

Jaguars' Dakota Allen: Filling in as starter
Rotowire
Allen is expected to start at weakside linebacker for Sunday's game against Houston, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.
With Myles Jack (ankle) missing Sunday's game, Allen will step in for the start. The 24-year-old finally saw action on defense after playing strictly on special teams this season, racking up six tackles (two solo). Allen will hope to top that output in Week 5, as he'll be tasked with slowing down the powerful David Johnson and the Texans' run game.

Jaguars' Dakota Allen: Managing hamstring injury
Rotowire
Allen is questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts due to a hamstring injury.
Allen worked as a limited practice participant this week and appears to have a decent chance of playing Week 17. The 24-year-old has exclusively played special teams since signing with the Jaguars earlier in December, so his availability is unlikely to impact the defense in the season finale.
