Allen called for an almost guaranteed pass and catch in the waning minutes of the Chargers' Sunday night win over the Steelers.

Few positions in fantasy football have been as impacted by injuries this season as the wide receiver position. That has forced fantasy managers to lean on more volatile options to win their matchups.

Allen (full participation in practice, rest) is on the injury report this week. He does not currently have a game status listed. Allen has a 520-yard season on 50 catches with four scores so far. He has been targeted on 75 occasions, and averages 57.8 yards.
