After one year with the Chicago Bears, Keenan Allen is heading back to Los Angeles as the Chargers announced Tuesday that they have resigned the six-time Pro Bowl receiver. It’ll be a one-year, $8.5 million deal for Allen, per NFL Network.
Allen, who recently had a visit with team officials, will help fill the void left by Mike Williams‘ surprising retirement announcement last month.
The 33-year-old Allen spent his first dozen NFL seasons with the Chargers before spending last season in Chicago. He caught 70 passes for 744 yards and seven touchdowns for the Bears, who acquired him via a trade with the Chargers last offseason.
A third-round pick in the 2013 NFL Draft, Allen enjoyed a highly productive seven-year run with the Chargers than spanned from 2017-23. During that period, Allen was named to six Pro Bowls and had five 1,000-yard receiving seasons. His last Pro Bowl season took place just two years ago, when he caught a career-high 108 passes for 1,243 yards and seven touchdowns.

Allen now has a chance to become the Chargers’ all-time leader in catches and receiving yards. He is just 52 receptions and 1,312 yards away from passing Hall of Fame tight end Antonio Gates for the franchise record in both categories. From an NFL perspective, Allen is 40th all-time in career receiving yards (11,274) and 18th in career receptions (974).
In Los Angeles, Allen will re-join a Chargers offense that includes quarterback Justin Herbert and a revamped receiving corps that is led by Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston and also includes rookies Tre Harris and KeAndre Lambert-Smith.

Obhájkyně titulu Kopecká potřebuje pauzu. Belgičanka na cyklistické MS nepojede
Kopecká vyhrála silniční závod na posledních dvou šampionátech. Po nevydařených vystoupeních na letošní Tour de France a Giru d'Italia se však rozhodla na mistrovství, které začne 21. září, nestartovat.„Všichni bychom měli být vděční za to, co Lotte v posledních letech dokázala. Teď potřebuje dobít baterky a dát se do pohody. Jsem přesvědčený, že se brzy vrátí silnější,“ uvedl trenér reprezentace Ludwig Willems.„Na Giru o sobě začala pochybovat a po Tour se to ještě znásobilo. Proto se rozhodla na mistrovství nestartovat, protože není na sto procent připravená. A vítězové jako je Lotte chtějí závodit jen o vítězství,“ dodal.

Procházkův soupeř sebevědomě: Velký zápas, ale na Jiřího jsem naprosto připravený
Tvrďák ze zámoří Rountree do bojiště vstoupí i s vědomím toho, že se mu předchozí souboj zcela vydařil. Jamahala Hilla, Procházkova posledního soupeře, během červnové pětikolové šichty k ničemu nepustil, a tak se rychle domluvila další mise - na domácí půdě proti zmíněnému 32letému rodákovi z Hostěradic u Znojma.„Takřka hned po zápase s Jamahalem jsem mluvil s vedením UFC o tom, co bude dál. Tohle (zápas s Procházkou) je to, co chtějí vidět. Mysleli si, že pro fanoušky to bude vzrušující souboj, s čímž já plně souhlasím. Je to opravdu velký zápas,“ říká Rountree na youtubovém kanálu, kde ukazuje pravidelné záběry z přípravy na zápasy.Americko-české měření sil výrazně napoví o dalším osudu polotěžké divize nejslavnější bojové ligy světa. Dá se totiž očekávat, že vítěz se v dalším duelu popasuje o mistrovský opasek. Zaváhání poraženého tak může přijít „draho“.„Musím se probojovat zpět k titulové šanci a v cestě mi stojí pár docela silných kluků. Dalším krokem je […]
