Chiefs Fan Jared Allen seeks trade amid contract stalemate
Chiefs defensive end Jared Allen formally requested a trade after weekend talks in Indianapolis failed to resolve his contract. Allen, a 2004 fourth-round pick, faces high tender status if unsigned, with a $2.35 million pay in 2007, while his 272 sacks over three years contrasts with a $425,000 final-year base. Chiefs GM Carl Peterson and spokesman Bob Moore signaled no trade, citing ongoing efforts toward a long-term deal despite Allen’s dissatisfaction and two DUI convictions.
