Keenan Allen Downplays His Injury

Keenan Allen Downplays His Injury

12 months ago

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (quadriceps), who is listed as questionable to play in Week 13 against the New England Patriots, sounds like he expects to play on Sunday. "This is light, honestly. Thigh contusion is like a solid nick. That's considered not bad," Allen said. When asked how it's been playing with an AC joint sprain in his shoulder, Allen said, "I feel great. This late in the season, I couldn't ask to be feeling any better." The 31-year-old is the WR3 overall in half-PPR scoring this year and leads the NFL with 129 targets in 11 games played. He has 97 receptions for 1,117 yards and seven touchdowns on the year, so he's clearly a set-and-forget fantasy commodity. Fantasy managers shouldn't be worried that he won't suit up to play in Week 13.
