Is Keenan Allen playing today? (Latest injury update for Chargers vs. Patriots in NFL Week 13)

The Los Angeles Chargers will have an extremely key piece of their offense in action on Sunday when they take on the New England Patriots. 

Star receiver Keenan Allen – who is listed as questionable – is expected to play through a quad injury for Los Angeles. 

Allen has double-digit receptions in three straight games, so this is huge for a Chargers offense that is already down Josh Palmer and Mike Williams.

Keenan Allen is listed as questionable for Week 13, but he is expected to play through his quad injury. 

Best Keenan Allen prop bet for Week 13 vs. Patriots

Keenan Allen OVER 8.5 receptions

As long as Keenan Allen is on the field, he’s going to be the top target for Justin Herbert and this Chargers offense. 

Over his last three games, Allen has 14, 10 and 11 receptions, and he’s seen at least nine targets in each of his last seven games. 

I expect this game to be a bounce-back showing for the Chargers, but they’ll need Allen to do it since  the team’s offense has lacked reliable pass catchers.
