Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen will enter his 11th season with the organization in 2023 and the stars looked poised for another playoff run.
Allen restructured his deal with the Chargers in the offseason as both sides agree they want to be in each other’s company as long as the five-time Pro Bowler can run, catch and score touchdowns.

Los Angeles will soon have to make a decision about Justin Herbert. The quarterback is in line for a massive contract extension that includes Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, who agreed to a five-year, $255 million deal that includes more than $179.3 million in guarantees and a no-trade clause.
How much should Herbert be paid? With a smile, Allen told Fox News Digital on Thursday, “$355 million.”
