Keenan Allen A Game-Time Decision
4 years agoLos Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hamstring) will be a true game-time decision for Thursday night against the division-rival Raiders, according to sources. Allen was sore in the Week 14 win over the Falcons, and the short week hasn't helped. If Allen does play, he will likely be limited, which would make for a really tough decision for his fantasy managers during the fantasy semifinals. In the first meeting with Las Vegas, Allen had nine catches for 103 yards and a touchdown. If he was fully healthy and active, he'd be a no-brainer must-start as a WR1, but the chance that he sees limited snaps if he's active could make him a boom-or-bust wideout. If both he and Mike Williams (hamstring) sit out, Tyron Johnson and Jalen Guyton would see expanded roles. Tight end Hunter Henry would have more upside as a TE1 as well.
