Allen was a severe fantasy disappointment last season, as he was unable to even play one full half of football due to his torn ACL in the Chargers’ Week 1 matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs.
While Allen has proven to be deadly when healthy, his proclivity to injury has definitely affected his fantasy value significantly. Allen has not been able to play a full season in two years, and that is very worrying for fantasy owners.
With that in mind, fantasy owners have an interesting predicament when it comes to drafting Allen this year. While he may no longer be a second or third-round pick like he previously was, Allen could be a steal later in a fantasy draft.
