Allen encroached the century mark in receiving yards for the third consecutive week, although he failed to extend his touchdown streak to three games in the loss to Baltimore. It was another exceptional receiving display from the 11th-year wideout, who now sits at 97 receptions, 1,117 yards and seven touchdowns through 11 games. Allen's current pace has him demolishing his previous career highs in receptions (106), yards (1,393) and touchdowns (eight). He could theoretically break two of those personal bests with a big game against the Patriots next Sunday.

Allen encroached the century mark in receiving yards for the third consecutive week, although he failed to extend his touchdown streak to three games in the loss to Baltimore. It was another exceptional receiving display from the 11th-year wideout, who now sits at 97 receptions, 1,117 yards and seven touchdowns through 11 games. Allen's current pace has him demolishing his previous career highs in receptions (106), yards (1,393) and touchdowns (eight). He could theoretically break two of those personal bests with a big game against the Patriots next Sunday.
Allen was limited Wednesday, but the wideout's upgrade to full participation Thursday paves the way for him to maintain his high-volume role in the Chargers offense Sunday night against the Ravens. Through 10 games, Allen -- who recorded a 10-116-1 line on 16 targets in a Week 11 loss to Green Bay -- is averaging 8.3 catches (on 11.3 targets) for 101.1 yards per game to go along with seven TDs.
Allen was listed as questionable ahead of this past Sunday's loss to the Packers, but the wideout played through his shoulder issue en route to logging 61 of a possible 65 snaps on offense in the contest, while hauling in 10 of his 16 targets for 116 yards and a TD. With no reported setbacks, there's a decent chance that Allen's listed limitations Wednesday were maintenance-related as opposed to indicative of an injury setback ahead of this weekend's game against the Ravens.
Allen turned in another big game despite uncharacteristically dropping a pair of passes near the goal line. After those miscues, though, he hauled in a 10-yard touchdown during the fourth quarter. In topping 100 yards for the fourth game this season, Allen also surpassed the 1,000-yard mark for the campaign, evidencing his status as one of the league's most consistent wide receivers.
Allen, who relayed Thursday that he has an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder, was able to practice fully Friday, but headed into the contest listed as questionable. Now that his active status has been confirmed, Allen should be able to handle his usual high-volume role in the absence of any in-game setbacks, with Tom Pelissero of NFL Network indicating that the Chargers' top wide receiver is expected to play without restrictions Sunday. Through his first nine games this season, Allen -- who logged an 11/175/2 receiving line in last weekend's loss to the Lions -- is averaging a fantasy-friendly 8.1 catches (on 10.8 targets) for 99.4 yards with six TDs.
Allen is expected to handle his usual allotment of snaps versus Green Bay, a role which has seen him command at least nine targets in all but one of his nine appearances this season. The Chargers are already without Mike Williams (knee), Joshua Palmer (knee) and Gerald Everett (chest), and Jalen Guyton (groin) is also expected to sit out Sunday. Therefore, it's possible Los Angeles' passing game has to run almost entirely through Allen. His active status will be made official 90 minutes ahead of Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.
Allen is listed as questionable after suffering a sprained AC joint in his left shoulder last week against the Lions. With Mike Williams (knee) and Joshua Palmer (knee) already out for the Chargers, they can't afford to be without Allen, and it sounds like he's going to gut through the injury Sunday.
Allen made a brief exit in the fourth quarter of the Chargers' Week 10 loss to the Lions due to a left shoulder injury, which proceeded to contain him to no on-field work Wednesday and a capped session Thursday before being deemed a full participant Friday. After the second practice, he clarified the nature of the issue, calling it an AC joint sprain, but at the same time he told Kris Rhim of ESPN.com that he'll "be out there again" this weekend. With a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff on tap Sunday, Allen's availability will be confirmed well in advance of the early slate of games.
Allen missed some time in the fourth quarter of this past Sunday's loss to the Lions due to a shoulder injury, but the only intel noted in its wake was a quote from coach Brandon Staley on Monday that the wide receiver was "day-to-day," per Daniel Popper of The Athletic. With the diagnosis seemingly clarified, Allen noted Thursday, "I'll be out there again," regarding his availability for Week 11. He also was seen adjusting medical tape and pressure plate on his left shoulder at the same time, which so far has contained him to one limited session (Thursday) this week. As a result, Allen seems like a decent bet to enter the weekend with a designation, which will be confirmed, one way or another, when the Chargers post their final injury report Friday.
