Chicago Bears wide receiver Keenan Allen (heel) is listed as questionable ahead of the Week 2 matchup against the Houston Texans on Sunday night. The veteran wideout hasn't practiced all week due to an ongoing heel issue. Head coach Matt Eberflus has downplayed the injury, but Allen still remains questionable for Sunday. His absence would be significant considering he saw 11 targets in the season opener. Fellow wideout Rome Odunze (knee) is also listed as questionable ahead of this game. The absence of both players would put DJ Moore in line for a huge workload. Moore is looking like a fantastic DFS option ahead of Week 2. There is still time for Allen to be cleared to play, but three straight DNPs doesn't give him a good look.
Chicago Bears wide receiver Keenan Allen (heel) did not practice again on Thursday due to a heel injury. Allen was sidelined during Thursday's practice and could be in danger of missing Sunday's game if he doesn't have successful practice on Friday. The 32-year-old was on the injury report all week prior to their season opener but was able to suit up. In that game, Allen saw a hefty 37.9% of the team's targets and was targeted on an impressive 47.8% of the routes he ran. If Allen does suit up for Sunday's game, he should present a solid floor in PPR formats, making him a safe WR2. However, if Allen were to be limited or miss Sunday's game, DJ Moore should see an uptick in targets and potentially tight end Cole Kmet, who saw just one pass come his way in the opener.
Chicago Bears wide receiver Keenan Allen (heel) was given a rest day at practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Matt Eberflus. The Bears will evaluate Allen on Thursday and see where he's at. Allen tweaked a heel injury that he also dealt with in training camp in August in the Week 1 season-opening victory over the Tennessee Titans and even went into the medical tent on the sideline to be checked, but he eventually returned to the field and finished out the game. In addition to Allen, rookie Rome Odunze's (knee) is dealing with an MCL sprain and may not be able to play in Week 2 at the Houston Texans. The 32-year-old Allen's status should be closely monitored the next few days. If both he and Odunze are unable to play against the Texans, DJ Moore will see as many targets as he can handle, with tight end Cole Kmet also see a sizeable uptick in targets from rookie quarterback Caleb Williams.
Chicago Bears wide receiver Keenan Allenhad a subdued performance against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, finishing with just 29 yards on four receptions despite being targeted a team-high 11 times. Allen missed a couple of key opportunities that could have turned his game around. In the first quarter, he was open down the sideline after a well-executed move, but quarterback Caleb Williams overthrew himan opportunity that could have resulted in a significant gain or even a touchdown. Later, Allen was targeted in the end zone for a potential touchdown, but he dropped a pass he typically would have caught. While the new offense may need some time to develop fully, seeing how frequently Williams looked to Allen is encouraging. Additionally, Allen entered the game with a heel injury and appeared to limp late in the match. Hopefully, he will recover for next Sunday night's game against the Houston Texans.
Chicago Bears wide receiver Keenan Allen (heel) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction after logging a full practice on Friday. The veteran wideout will make his Bears debut as the team's No. 2 receiver behind DJ Moore. Allen is coming off a terrific season in which he caught 108 passes for 1,243 yards and seven touchdowns. Even as he operates behind Moore, Allen should be viewed as a high-end WR3/FLEX play in most fantasy football formats.
