Is Keenan Allen playing today? Why Chargers WR is off to slow start in Week 16 image

Keenan Allen has established himself as one of the premier targets for quarterback Justin Herbert in the Los Angeles Chargers' offense this season.

In 14 games, Allen has tallied 68 receptions for 680 yards and four touchdowns. The veteran receiver has been a savvy security blanket and solid receiving option for Hebert in 2025.

Though Allen has found a role in Los Angeles' offense this year, the 33-year-old is off to a quiet start in Week 16 versus the Dallas Cowboys.

Is Keenan Allen playing today?

Yes, Allen is healthy and active today. However, the six-time Pro Bowler didn't garner a target on the Chargers' opening drive, which ended in a Quentin Johnston touchdown.

Allen should get going sooner rather than later.
