Washington Commanders defensive tackle Jonathan Allen will miss the remainder of the season after tearing his left pectoral muscle Sunday, a source confirmed to John Keim of ESPN.

Allen suffered the tear during the third quarter of a 30-23 loss to Baltimore, rolling over in pain after running back Derrick Henry scored on a 7-yard touchdown run with 2 minutes, 12 seconds remaining.

Allen underwent tests on the sideline and after the game and later expressed optimism about his outlook in the locker room. But an MRI Monday afternoon revealed the tear.

Washington also had two other defensive linemen exit the game with injuries -- defensive ends Dorance Armstrong (rib) and Javontae Jean-Baptiste (right foot). Their status remains uncertain.

Allen has been one of Washington's top defensive linemen since the team drafted him in the first round in 2017. He made the Pro Bowl in 2021 and '22 when he had a combined 16.5 sacks. Allen had two sacks in six games this season.
