2020 Fantasy Outlook
One of the steadiest producers in the league, the once injury-prone Allen has now played three consecutive 16-game seasons. Last year, he had his usual 100-catch, 1,200-yard, six-TD effort, though at the cost of some efficiency, likely due to an aging Philip Rivers. This year, Rivers is gone, and the Chargers are going with rookie Justin Herbert and veteran Tyrod Taylor at quarterback. Taylor is an elite scrambler and rarely turns the ball over, but aside from 14 games in 2015, has never cracked 7.0 YPA. Herbert's a good athlete with a big frame, but he was inconsistent at Oregon and likely will have some adjusting to do during his first exposure to the NFL. At 6-2, 211, Allen has good size, but he's never been much of a red-zone presence, and with both Hunter Henry and Mike Williams around, that's not likely to change in 2020. Allen isn't fast or even especially quick, but he runs excellent routes, has good hands and knows how to get open. Bottom line, Allen should remain the team's top target out wide, but with Taylor/Herbert at quarterback and Shane Steichen calling plays, this could be one of the more run-heavy teams in the league. Mike Williams is still the big-play option, and both Williams and Henry are better suited to see goalline work. Throw in Austin Ekeler as an elite receiver out of the backfield, and Allen's set-up is the worst of his career. Read Past Outlooks

Returns from COVID list
The Chargers activated Allen (undisclosed/hamstring) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, per the NFL's official transactions report.
ANALYSIS
Allen missed the Chargers' regular-season finale after being placed on the COVID-19 list, but he'll now be eligible to return to team facilities. It's possible that he would've been unavailable for the win over Kansas City anyway, given that he missed Week 16 due to a lingering hamstring injury, but there's not yet any reason to suspect that his availability for the start of offseason workouts is in danger. Allen appeared in 14 games in 2020, during which span he quickly emerged as the favorite target of rookie quarterback Justin Herbert but narrowly missed logging a fourth straight season with 1,000 receiving yards. In all, Allen wraps up another impressive season with 100 catches (147 targets) for 992 yards and eight touchdowns.

In many ways, Allen's 2018 season mirrored his previous one with 8.8 YPT, six scores and nearly 100 receptions in both. But the shape of Allen's output was different. In 2017, he had four catches of 40-plus yards; last year, he had only one. The efficiency remained constant thanks to an improved catch rate - 71.3 percent last year compared to 64.3 in 2017. In other words, like many receivers in the NFL, Allen became more of a short-pass catcher with an 8.6-yard average depth of target. Allen's volume also dropped off, even though he was healthy for the second straight year. The emergence of second-year man Mike Williams (66 targets) likely had an effect, as did the Chargers' overall improvement - Philip Rivers attempted only 508 passes in 2018 after slinging the rock 575 times the previous year. At 6-2, 211, and with only average speed, Allen makes his living with crisp route running, excellent hands and a tight rapport with Rivers. Allen's red-zone usage declined steeply last year, thanks in part to the 6-4, 220-pound Williams' emergence as a threat in that area, and it's unlikely to rebound in 2019 with Williams taking on a bigger role and tight end Hunter Henry set to return. The departure of Tyrell Williams (65 targets) to Oakland clears some space, but the personnel changes are likely to be neutral for Allen at best.
