Keenan Allen 2025 Fantasy Football Outlook: Veteran Returns to Familiar Territory
After a one-year stint with the Chicago Bears, wide receiver Keenan Allen is returning to the Los Angeles Chargers on a one-year deal. The 33-year-old enters his 13th season, reuniting with quarterback Justin Herbert, with whom he had one of his best seasons in 2023 (108-1,243-7 in 13 games). His production dipped last year, posting a 70-744-7 line with the Bears while battling a heel injury, which was reflected in his fantasy points per game plummeting from 21.5 to 12.4. A key question for 2025 is how Allen will fit into the offense, as he plays a similar role to second-year stud Ladd McConkey, who had more success in the slot last season. However, Allen has been equally effective from the slot and the outside throughout his career, solidifying him as one of the most versatile receivers of the last decade. RotoBaller projects Allen with an 84-896-6 stat line, currently ranking him as WR55, but with those numbers, he should be more in the WR40 conversation by the end of camp. If he stays healthy, his familiarity with Herbert could lead to a productive season, making him a solid WR4 with WR3 upside. He is a proven, consistent, and talented weapon who should add depth, stability, and leadership to an offense looking to take a step forward this year.
