Keenan Allen is headed to Indianapolis.
The Colts struck a one-year, $8.32 million deal with the veteran wide receiver on Monday night, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz .
Allen has spent nearly his entire career with the Chargers organization, which first selected him in the third round of the 2013 NFL Draft. He was on a one-year, $3.02 million deal with the franchise last season, and became a free agent this summer.
The 34-year-old had 777 receiving yards and four touchdowns on 81 catches last season with the Chargers. He’s earned six Pro Bowl nods throughout his career, and has six 1,000-yard seasons to his name. He earned Comeback Player of the Year honors in 2017, too, after missing nearly all of the 2016 season with a torn ACL.
Now that he’s found a home for the 2026 campaign, Allen will get to reunite with longtime Chargers assistant Shane Steichen in Indianapolis. Steichen, who is entering his fourth season as the Colts’ head coach, worked his way up through the Chargers’ coaching staff and was their offensive coordinator for two seasons with Allen as one of their primary targets.
Allen will now be a huge piece for the Colts this fall, who are getting quarterback Daniel Jones back after his Achilles injury late last season. Allen should slide in with Alec Pierce and Josh Downs in the starting lineup to lead the receivers room.
The Colts went 8-9 last season and missed the playoffs for a fifth straight campaign. They’ll open the season against the Baltimore Ravens on Sept. 13.
