Jacksonville Jaguars outside linebacker Josh Allen doesn't know what his future holds beyond this season, but he is certain about one thing: What he did in 2022 wasn't enough, Michael DiRocco of ESPN reports.

Allen had seven sacks, 22 quarterback hits, four forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries -- including one for the deciding touchdown in a victory over the Tennessee Titans to win the AFC South -- but he wasn't the consistent playmaker he wants to be.

"My individual growth last year wasn't good enough," Allen said Monday, the first day of the team's three-day minicamp. "Just the tape that I watched. You've got to be real critical of yourself. ... I watched all the games and I was real critical and I knew I needed to not put that out there no more; I wanted to prioritize that, and that was my main focus all season, is really to work on that and to grow as a player overall."

Allen's seven sacks led the Jaguars last season, but he went eight consecutive games without posting a sack before getting four in the final five games. He had a sack, 11 tackles and four tackles for loss in the Jaguars' two playoff games.

"... Always room for improvement, and I'm ready to take those next steps individually," Allen said.
