Anthony Richardson and Keenan Allen connecting early
Adam Schefter posted footage of Anthony Richardson, QB, Indianapolis Colts, throwing to new wide receiver Keenan Allen. Allen signed with Indianapolis on a one-year, $8.32 million max contract to play his 14th NFL season.
Allen caught six passes in a practice session and has already taken 1-on-1 and 11-on-11 reps. He made his Colts debut in the preseason game against the Atlanta Falcons, taking two 1-on-1 reps and four team reps.
What this means for your roster
Keenan Allen joining Richardson's offense is the kind of move that matters in both redraft and dynasty. Richardson needs a reliable receiver who can win at every level of the field, and Allen has been that for most of his career. The early rep count and catch volume in camp suggest Allen is being integrated quickly.
If you are rostering Richardson, Allen is worth grabbing now. If you need a WR2 or flex with upside tied to a young arm, Allen is a name to watch on the waiver wire before the regular season.
