"Jared Allen Inks Deals with Chicago Bears"
Last updated 📅 2025-03-26
March 26, 2014 — The Chicago Bears completed a transaction to shore up their defensive line by signing a free agent who used to play with one of their NFC North rivals.
Defensive Jared Allen, formerly of the Minnesota Vikings, inked a guaranteed deal worth $15.5 million, which could escalate to over $32 million. Not bad for a 31-year-old.
Allen spent the entire 2014 and part of the 2015 seasons with the Chicago Bears before he finished the year and his brilliant career with the Carolina Panthers. The sack specialist registered 5.5 of his career 136 QB sacks as a member of the Bears.
