San Diego Chargers Officially Place Keenan Allen On Injured Reserve With Torn ACL

Keenan Allen is officially done for the season. The San Diego Chargers placed the 24-year-old wide receiver on injured reserve on Monday ending his season.

Allen tore the ACL in his right knee during the second quarter of San Diego’s matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. It’s the second time in as many years the Cal product has suffered a season-ending injury. Last year he turned in a monster performance in the first half, then missed the final eight games of the season after lacerating his kidney.

Allen is still young and if he’s lucky there won’t be any damage to the other ligaments in his knee and he’ll have a standard rehab for the injury. For those of you who drafted him in fantasy football, we can only offer our sincerest condolences.
