2020 Season Breakdown:

A former 2018 fifth-round draft pick, Allen was brought in at a time when the Pittsburgh Steelers were flush with safeties, and he was the last one in. retaining Sean Davis as a starter and Jordan Dangerfield as depth, they signed Morgan Burnett and Nat Berhe in free agency before using a first-round pick on Terrell Edmunds.
