Experience: 12

2015 Salary Cap Hit: $665,000
2015 Season Breakdown: For only the second time in his career, and the first time since 2006, veteran safety Will Allen served as a primary starting safety for a team for an entire season, playing in and starting 13 regular season games and two playoff games in 2015, missing three games due to an ankle injury in the middle of the season.
But that doesn’t necessarily mean that his most recent season was something to behold—after all, the Steelers only turned to him out of necessity after Shamarko Thomas failed his own audition to enter the starting lineup.
