VOLUME 26, ISSUE 1 41 Ricardo Allen - Atlanta Falcons Ricardo Allen spent all last season on the Falcons' practice squad, having the less-than-favorable distinction of being the highest drafted player in 2014 not to make a 53-man roster as a rookie. Well, Allen can forget all that now. The second-year DB has moved from cornerback to free safety, where he's been with Atlanta's first-team defense during training camp. He's trying to model himself after Seattle All- Pro Earl Thomas, a similarly smaller-statured safety who isn't afraid to get his nose dirty. Ryan Kerrigan - Washington Redskins Ryan Kerrigan never expect- ed to be the face of a fran- chise. But he's one of them now for the Washington Redskins, particularly after signing a five-year contract extension worth $11.5 mil- lion annually with a $16-mil- lion signing bonus. Kerrig- an's proven to be worth the deal, rarely missing time in his first four years while becoming one of the league's most productive outside linebackers. He has 38 sacks in his career, including 13.5 last season, with a couple picks and nearly 250 tackles.
