Chargers WR Keenan Allen ranked 4th among Chargers WRs in playing time in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks and checked in 5th in routes, according to Pro Football Focus. He trailed DeAndre Carter, Mike Williams, Michael Bandy and Jason Moore, running just 14 routes among QB Justin Herbert's 57 dropbacks (24.6%). Allen drew just 2 targets, catching both for 11 yards. We'd bet on a bigger role after the Week 8 bye. Carter caught just 3 of 7 targets for 37 yards, trailing RB Austin Ekeler, Williams and TE Gerald Everett in targets.
