Who Should I Start? Keenan Allen or Wan'Dale Robinson

Tuesday, August 5, 8:10 PM

Free-agent wide receiver Keenan Allen has agreed to a one-year, $8.52 million contract with the Los Angeles Chargers, according to Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport of NFL Media. Allen, 33, spent the first 11 years of his career with the Chargers after going in the third round of the 2013 draft. He became one of the most productive players in franchise history, hauling in 904 passes and 60 touchdowns while earning six Pro Bowl nods. Allen went to the Chicago Bears via trade before last season and posted respectable production with 70 grabs, 744 yards, and six scores, but he remained on the open market for several months. He's now reuniting with quarterback Justin Herbert and giving him another significant receiving weapon to join Ladd McConkey (undisclosed), who hasn't practiced as a result of an undisclosed injury. McConkey should be fine, but the Chargers still found themselves in need of help after the recent retirement of Mike Williams. Allen visited the Chargers last week, and head coach Jim Harbaugh publicly expressed a desire for the team to sign him. Harbaugh got his wish. Based on Allen's track record and his rapport with Herbert, he should continue to be an asset for fantasy managers.

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson (leg) is participating in team portions of practice after being limited by a minor leg injury earlier in camp. The fourth-year wideout is expected to be the Giants' primary slot receiver this season. Robinson played in all 17 games for New York in 2024, recording 93 receptions for 699 yards and three touchdowns. As evidenced by his 7.5-yard-per-reception average, Robinson was almost exclusively utilized as a short-area target last season. As a result, he profiles much more favorably in PPR-scoring fantasy formats.
