Keenan Allen in Consideration for the Colts?

Wednesday, June 24, 9:19 AM

Indianapolis Colts top wide receiver Alec Pierce (ankle) might not be ready for the start of training camp this summer after having surgery on his left ankle in late March, and the Colts traded Michael Pittman Jr. to the Pittsburgh Steelers this offseason. As Pierce continues to rehab, veteran free-agent wideout Keenan Allen could be in consideration for the Colts on the open market, according to James Boyd of The Athletic. The 34-year-old previously played for head coach Shane Steichen when Steichen was the Chargers' offensive coordinator, so there is a clear connection there. The major problem with adding Allen is that both he and Josh Downs are primarily both slot weapons. Allen, a six-time Pro Bowler, is approaching the end of his NFL career, but in his 13th season in 2025 in his return to the Chargers, he had a respectable 81 receptions for 777 yards and four touchdowns in 17 regular-season games (three starts). If/when Allen lands with another NFL team, he'll be competing for a WR3 role most likely, which might give him fleeting deep-league value in PPR formats.

Kareem Hunt News

Kareem Hunt Continues to Score Touchdowns Late in his Career

Thursday, February 12, 8:56 AM

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt has enjoyed a career resurgence over his last two years with the team. In 2025, he appeared in all 17 games, rushing for 611 yards and eight touchdowns while sharing the backfield with Isiah Pacheco. The veteran running back also added 143 receiving yards and a receiving touchdown, and he finished the year as the overall RB31 in full-PPR leagues. Hunt now has 1,658 scrimmage yards over his last two seasons, as well as a whopping 25 touchdowns over his last three seasons. Hunt, an impending free agent, will be 31 years old when the 2026 season gets underway. His efficiency has tailed off, and he's no longer a workhorse back. However, he has shown that he can continue to be a scoring threat while contributing as both a ball-carrier and a pass-catcher. We wouldn't be surprised to see Hunt re-sign with the Chiefs, but no matter where he ends up, he could sneak into the top 36 running backs for fantasy football drafts. His dynasty outlook isn't quite as favorable, though, as he's definitely in the final stages of his career.
