Jeff Allen: Reaches injury settlement with Texans
Allen (undisclosed) agreed to an injury settlement with the Texans and was released from the team's physically unable to perform list Friday, Sarah Bishop of ESPN reports.
Allen landed on the PUP list in May due to an undisclosed injury, though it's possible he could still be nursing the concussion that caused him to miss the final two games of the 2017 campaign. The 28-year-old will immediately become an unrestricted free agent after agreeing to the injury settlement, and he should have a decent market for his services after starting 26 games for Houston over the last two seasons.

Texans' Jeff Allen: Placed on PUP list
Allen has been placed on the physically unable to perform list with an undisclosed injury, Aaron Wilson of The Houston Chronicle reports.
Allen missed time last season due to a concussion, but it doesn't appear as though that is the same issue that is preventing him from practicing currently. A starter when healthy, Allen has missed six games over the past two seasons with Houston. Look for Zach Fulton and Senio Kelemete to operate as the starting guard tandem while Allen is out.

Texans' Jeff Allen: Remains in concussion protocol
Allen remains the NFL's concussion protocol and has been ruled out for Monday's game against Pittsburgh, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Filling in for Allen at left tackle will be Julie'n Davenport, a rookie lineman from Bucknell. Houston's offensive line has been in flux all season due to injuries, which has slowed down the rushing attack. Fantasy owners of running back Lamar Miller need to scale back expectations given the poor state of the line.
