The Washington Commanders have granted two-time Pro Bowler Jonathan Allen permission to seek a trade, per multiple reports. 

Allen, 30, has spent his entire eight-year career with the Commanders after being drafted by the team in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft. 

The Commanders plan to do right by Allen in ensuring he moves to a good team, whether that be via a trade or free agency, per NFL Network.

Allen has been a team leader on the Commanders and has become a respected voice in the locker room. Allen has one year left on his contract, and his $15 million salary is not guaranteed. 

Last season, Allen played in just eight regular-season games due to a pectoral injury. Despite the injury, he came back and played in all three of the Commanders’ playoff games in their surprise run to the NFC Championship.

In the regular season, Allen registered three sacks, and in the playoffs, he had one tackle for loss and two quarterback hits.

While Allen missed time last season, he has been very durable in his career, starting no less than 15 games in a season for six years in a row after only playing five games his rookie year. 

Across his eight-year career, Allen has 42 sacks in 109 games played. 

Allen has a $22.3 million cap hit should he be on the roster in 2025, according to Spotrac. Because of the team's strong depth at the defensive tackle position, it appears to make Allen expendable.

The Commanders have star defensive tackle Daron Payne under contract through the 2026 season and spent a second-round pick on another defensive tackle, Johnny Newton, in the 2024 NFL Draft. 

Allen’s cap hit is the third highest on the team, behind Payne and wide receiver Terry McLaurin. 

Newton played 16 games, registering two sacks in his rookie season. Next season, he will likely be tasked with supplanting Allen.

Chris Kluwe, the former NFL punter who was carried out of a California city council meeting in protest of a "MAGA" plaque in front of a library, floated the possibility of running for office.

Kluwe’s protest stemmed from the plan to have a plaque outside a Huntington Beach library. The plaque has the acronym "MAGA" on it which read the words "Magical," "Alluring," "Galvanizing" and "Adventurous." It is also the acronym for President Donald Trump’s campaign message, "Make America Great Again."

The incident went viral last week, and he opened up about the idea to TMZ Sports.

"Personally, I do not want to run for public office because I do not want power. That's not something I desire," the former Minnesota Vikings player told the outlet. "I want everyone to be able to live their own life, free to live their life without other people harming them. Unfortunately, we're in a position where it looks like I might have to run for public office.

"I hate that because I want to sit at home and play video games. And if you are a good public servant, you serve the public. And it is an exhausting, demanding job. That means you care about everyone. You have to care about their issues and you have to find ways to help try and solve those issues."

Kluwe added he already had calls with Democratic Party "operatives" and added that something had to change within the party itself.

"But the thing that I firmly believe is that what our current Democratic Party is doing is not working. And it's time for the old guard to leave. It's time for new faces to take over," he said.

He added that he had no reservations about his "peaceful civil disobedience."
