Jonathan Allen has moved up the NFL Top 100 List.
Friday night, the NFL released numbers 51 through 60, and the former Alabama Crimson Tide defensive tackle continues to move up in the eyes of current NFL players.
Allen came in at number 52 in this year’s list, one spot behind Jets new quarterback Aaron Rodgers and one ahead of Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans.

In the 2022 Top 100 list, Allen was the only Washington player to make the list when he came in at number 88. Thus Allen is becoming more highly esteemed by his fellow NFL players, evidenced by his leaping up 36 spots in this year’s list to 52.
Allen has been a Pro Bowler in the 2021 and 2022 seasons. Last season (2022), Allen contributed 65 tackles (44 solo, 21 assists), 16 tackles for a loss, 17 quarterback hits and 7.5 quarterback sacks.

Washington, in this year’s list, is thus far also represented by Terry McLaurin. The former Ohio State wide receiver broke through into the Top 100 list for the first time when he appeared earlier at number 94.
With Allen coming in at No. 52 this season, the question is raised, “Will Commanders defensive tackle Daron Payne make the top 100 list this year?”
