Keenan Allen has never known anything but the San Diego/Los Angeles Chargers during his NFL career, and the franchise's decision to trade him to the Chicago Bears this offseason reportedly "stunned and hurt" him.
Kris Rhim of ESPN cited sources close to the wide receiver who said he was not pleased with how the team handled contract negotiations and ultimately traded him even though he had previously expressed a desire to stay.
From the team's perspective, it was anything but an easy situation heading into the first offseason for general manager Joe Hortiz and head coach Jim Harbaugh.
