Keenan Allen Will Play In Week 11 Despite AC Joint Sprain

Keenan Allen Will Play In Week 11 Despite AC Joint Sprain

12 months ago

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (shoulder) said he has an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder but will play in Week 11 against the Green Bay Packers. Allen didn't take part in practice on Wednesday but returned to a limited session on Thursday. He was wearing a pressure plate on his injured shoulder and said it's possible he'll be wearing it on Sunday. Allen briefly left Week 10's loss to the Detroit Lions but re-entered and finished with 11 catches for 175 yards and two touchdowns in one of his best games of the year. Fantasy managers need to leave him in their starting lineups this weekend, but rookie first-rounder Quentin Johnston and Jalen Guyton may need to pick up more of the slack, especially if tight end Gerald Everett (back) is inactive.
