Bears acquire Keenan Allen from Chargers for 4th-round pick
The Chicago Bears acquired wide receiver Keenan Allen from the Los Angeles Chargers for a fourth-round pick, per Jay Glazer of FOX Sports.
What It Means:
Allen had 108 catches on 150 targets for 1,243 yards and 7 touchdowns last season for the Chargers, despite missing multiple games due to injury. He will likely be the No. 2 receiver in Chicago behind D.J. Moore, but Allen is a solid upgrade for the offense as a whole. Quentin Johnston and Josh Palmer are currently the top receivers for Justin Herbert in Los Angeles.
Allen averaged 17.3 FanDuel points across 13 games last season. Among the 35 receivers with at least 100 targets, Allen ranked 16th in Reception Net Expected Points per target. Moore finished 4th in that same group.
