He played for the Chicago Bears in 2024.

The 34-year-old has been one of the best wide receivers in the NFL. He was a Pro Bowler from 2017 to 2021 and then again in 2023 – all with the Chargers. He has 1,055 catches for 12,051 yards and 70 touchdown catches in his career.

The Colts brought Allen onto the roster for some added depth. He was projected to be among the starters going into the 2026 season with Alec Pierce and Josh Downs.
