The first free agent acquisition of the offseason was a bit of a surprise. However, after Googling him, I found that the year-old Allen fits into the Bucs new blue-collar mauler philosophy for their trenches and after understanding that you begin to understand why they signed him. His dad, Matt Allen, was a Vikings fan. His mom, Susie Allen, was a Packers fan. When Beau was 12 years-old, Susie was diagnosed with breast cancer but survived. It started in college when he saw some of his teammates growing their hair out until it was long enough to cut and donate to cancer patients. Size and athleticism run in his family. He went to Minnetonka High School where he was the only player in school history to be a four-year starter. In his four years with the Badgers, he totaled 94 tackles , 15 tackles for loss and 8 sacks while winning three Big 10 championships.

Not sure about the story behind that. As a joke, he took a picture and created a Bumble dating app account using it as his profile pic where he met his present girlfriend. After school, he entered the NFL Draft where he was a 7th round pick of the Philadelphia Eagles and signed a four-year deal. He only missed one game in Philly due to injury and totaled 87 tackles and 2 sacks. Not big numbers, but the disruption that he causes in the middle of the offensive line is immeasurable and his locker room presence is contagious. He was a huge part of an Eagles defensive line who finished 1st in rushing defense only giving up Allen became a free agent after winning that Super Bowl. There were a number of reasons that he decided to go with Tampa Bay.The scheme was similar to what they ran in Philly, the chance to be a full-time starter and the excitement of playing next to an elite player like Gerald McCoy seemed to be a few of the biggest though. He also said that he likes the direction that this franchise is headed with Jameis Winston and the rest of the young nucleus. Allen is a worker. A lunch pail kind of guy. This defense and this team are in desperate need of the brand of nasty attitude and relentless work ethic that Allen brings to the table. I have been given the opportunity by WhatTheBuc. Buccaneer football and all that goes with it. This is my first public writing gig, so I'm hoping that I can entertain the fine fans of Tampa Bay while learning and gaining experience towards a possible new career in sports reporting. I hope everyone enjoys the fruits of my labor and I look forward to bringing some new and exciting stories to Bucs Nation! And as always
