91 Beau Allen DT

Allen (foot) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Carmen Vitali of the team's official site reports.

The fifth-year tackle has been dealing with a troublesome foot the majority of the season, but he's managed to suit up for the last five games. Allen logged 27 snaps against the Redskins in the Week 10 loss, which did mark his lowest figure in that category since Week 2. With back-to-back limited practices to open the practice week that could well be part of an injury maintenance program at this point of the campaign, Allen is likely trending toward active status again in Week 11 against the Giants.

Allen (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

Allen returned to full participation Friday after logging limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday, so he's trending in the right direction. The defensive tackle is slated to return from a two-game absence, having been sidelined since Week 2 due to a foot injury.

Allen (foot) returned to practice Wednesday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

Allen's appearance at practice marks his first time back since Sept. 16. It's unclear whether he'll be ready to go for Sunday's game considering the extended absence from competition, but things should clear up before Sunday's tilt with Atlanta.

Allen (foot) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Bears, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Allen will miss a second consecutive week due to an unspecified foot injury he sustained in Week 2. Unless rookie Vita Vea (calf) is able to suit up, both Jerel Worthy and William Gholston could again be in store for extended snaps.

Allen (foot) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Carmen Vitali of the team's official site reports.

Allen was held out of Monday night's loss to the Steelers, and his lack of participation Wednesday doesn't make his prospects of suiting up against the Bears in Week 4 very bright for the moment. The veteran tackle originally suffered the injury against his former Eagles teammates in a Week 2 win.
