Who Should I Start? Keenan Allen or Tank Dell

Wednesday, July 23, 1:20 PM

Per FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz, free-agent wide receiver Keenan Allen has drawn interest from multiple teams in recent weeks. Schultz said it's his understanding that Allen has been waiting for training camps to get underway to better assess the landscape and get a clearer picture of each team's receiver situation. Even though the 33-year-old is past his prime, he's still easily one of the top free agents available with training camps starting this week. In his first and only season in Chicago in 2024 with the Bears, the six-time Pro Bowler struggled like the rest of the offense and caught only 70 of his 121 targets for 744 yards, although he did find the end zone seven times for the second straight season in 15 starts. Allen is by no means washed up and still has the tools to make an impact in fantasy, but it will all depend on where he lands.

Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said on Wednesday at training camp that wide receiver Tank Dell (knee) is "doing great." "He's crushing rehab. He's in a great headspace. We're not putting any timetables timeline on Tank." It's good news that Dell is making strides in his rehab, but the fact remains that he's highly unlikely to play at all in 2025 after dislocating his knee and tearing his ACL, MCL and LCL in Week 16 last season. The Texans placed him on the Physically Unable to Perform list on Wednesday, and he won't be taking part in any practices this summer as the team gets ready for the 2025 season. If Dell is even ready to return next year, he might be a shell of his former self. Fantasy managers should leave him off their draft boards this fall.
