Chargers WR Keenan Allen Carted Off Field With Apparent Knee Injury

And then play began, and everyone was reminded of the bloodsport that football is. Allen was playing in his first game since missing the final eight games of the 2015 season with a lacerated kidney.

Before the injury, Allen had six catches for 63 yards. Should the team defeat Kansas City, the mood will still be quite somber in the locker room due to the news concerning Allen. Allen went down, grabbed at his leg, and put his arm up – waving a white flag. He ripped off his helmet as trainers began tending to him, and was helped into the back of a cart and taken off the field. “We have unfinished business”. There’s no word yet of what exactly the injury is for Allen, but considering that he had to be carted off the field, it’s likely not good.

Allen was ruled out for the game.

Such a bad blow to the Chargers.

The return lasted less than two quarters and ended in tears.
