Will Allen Sees Highs And Lows As Starting Safety

If this is to be the final season for Pittsburgh Steelers safety Will Allen—whether by choice or by force—then at least he can say that he was able to notch one final professional accomplishment, even if it took 12 years for him to do so. Entering this season, the 33-year-old had never recorded a sack in the NFL.

He managed to record four sacks for the Steelers defense in 2015, becoming the first defensive back to do so since Deshea Townsend in 2004 to record that many in a season for the team.
