While many thought Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen was on the decline going into this season, he has proven the doubters wrong.

Over the first half of the 2025 season, Allen has picked up where he left off with Los Angeles, as he's racked up 520 yards through nine games, which is the second-most on the team.

Unfortunately, it hasn't been an ideal start for Allen in the Week 10 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Here's a closer look at what's going on.

Is Keenan Allen playing tonight?

UPDATE: Allen finally has his first catch of the night, and it came on the Chargers' first drive of the second half.

UPDATE: Allen got his second target of the game on the Chargers' final drive of the first half, but he was unable to hold on. Allen remains blanked through two quarters of Week 10.

UPDATE: With three minutes left in the first half, Allen is still without a catch and he still has just one target. With so many mouths to feed, and with the Chargers' offense struggling overall, it has been tough sledding for the veteran.

UPDATE: Allen has his first target of the night, but he's still without a catch through two drives.

Yes, Allen is active and in the lineup on Sunday night, he just hasn't been targeted yet.

The Chargers' first drive didn't give anyone much of a chance to get going, as Los Angeles went three-and-out before punting the ball away.

It's just a matter of time before Allen connects with Justin Herbert, though, so don't fret just yet.
