Allen, 24, signed on with the Panthers as an undrafted free agent back in 2018. Allen was waived coming out of the preseason before the Panthers added him to their practice squad. He was called up to the active roster late in the season.
In 2019, Allen started 13 games for the Panthers and completed 62 percent of his passes for 3,322 yards, 17 touchdowns and 16 interceptions. He also rushed 32 times for 106 yards and two touchdowns.
