Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen, the winner of Pro Football Weekly’s 2017 Comeback Player of the Year Award, is no stranger to comebacks.
Allen entered 2017, his fifth year in the league, in search of his first 16-game season. His 2016 was halted after just 27 offensive snaps by a torn right ACL. He lacerated his kidney in the eighth game of the 2015 campaign, when he was on track to threaten Hall of Famer Marvin Harrison’s NFL record 143 receptions.
And Allen entered the league in 2013 as a third-round rookie out of Cal, where his junior season was cut short by a knee injury.
