2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Jaguars placed the franchise tag on Hines-Allen at the start of the offseason, and it didn't take long for the two sides to come to terms on a five-year, $150 million contract. The 27-year-old is coming off the best season of his career, as he posted 66 tackles (43 solo) with 17.5 sacks, two forced fumbles and an interception while playing in all 17 games during 2023. Hines-Allen should be in the conversation for Defensive Player of the Year if he can continue to build on that performance in 2024. Read Past Outlooks
Agrees to massive five-year deal
Allen and the Jaguars agreed to terms Wednesday on a five-year, $150 million contract, Nick Shook of NFL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jacksonville is about a month removed from placing the franchise tag on Allen, who tallied a franchise-record 17.5 sacks last season, but the team's stated goal has always been to negotiate a long-term contract with the two-time Pro Bowler. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Allen's new deal includes $88 million guaranteed, while the franchise tag would've had him play out the 2024 season on a salary of just over $24 million. Allen looked convincing as one of the league's elite pass-rushers in 2024, in which he also logged 66 tackles (43 solo), one interception and two forced fumbles across 17 regular-season appearances. He'll come off the board as one of the top players at his position in IDP formats in 2024 drafts.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Longshot DPOY candidate in '24
Hines-Allen is labeled by Bucky Brooks of NFL.com as a viable longshot candidate for Defensive Player of the Year in 2024.
ANALYSIS
Hines-Allen was close to winning the award in 2023, a season in which he recorded 17.5 sacks in the regular season and earned himself a five-year, $150 million contract. Brooks notes the addition of Arik Armstead to a defensive line that already includes Travon Walker will help reduce the double teams Hines-Allen is subject to, and new defensive coordinator Ryan Nielsen's scheme is expected to also help because it focuses on getting pressure with the front four.
