The Redskins finished the year with a 3-13 record after they were crushed 47-16 by the Dallas Cowboys in the season's last regular-season game.
Here is the official statement from Snyder:
Allen joined the Redskins late in the 2009 season.
His tenure included the acquisitions and departures of would-be franchise quarterbacks Robert Griffin III and Kirk Cousins; as well as the firings of head coaches Michael Shanahan and Jay Gruden, among other notable shifts for the Burgundy and Gold.
The Skins have won zero playoff games and lost more than 100 regular-season games during Allen's 10 seasons as team president.
