Keenan Allen, wide receiver, Los Angeles Chargers
Provided Allen hits the turf in full health and stays that way throughout 16 games, we predict he will have a huge campaign. We’ll scrap Allen’s 2016 one-game injury plagued season into the trash and review some of his previous accomplishments.
In 2015, Allen was on his way to a breakout season and would have finished the year with 134 receptions and 1,450 yards had he kept on pace of his first eight games. His catch rate that year was incredible 90.6 percent. Sadly, the injury bug bit that season as well.
At a mere 25 years old, Allen should pick back up where he left off. If so, he’ll end up putting together a stat sheet that rivals the league’s most elite receivers. Allen is also playing out his final contract year with the Chargers. It will be a pivotal season that will determine what type of contract Allen is up for next.
Keeping healthy, of course, is the biggest key.
