Colts Expected to Sign Keenan Allen: Veteran WR Joins Indianapolis on One-Year Deal
The veteran receiver is expected to give Daniel Jones a steady target after Alec Pierce’s ankle injury and Michael Pittman Jr.’s departure.
- On Tuesday, the Indianapolis Colts signed veteran wide receiver Keenan Allen to a 1-year deal worth $8.32 million, reuniting the six-time Pro Bowler with head coach Shane Steichen.
- General Manager Chris Ballard pursued Allen to bolster the offense while Alec Pierce recovers from offseason ankle surgery, having signed a four-year, $116 million contract.
- Entering his 14th season, Allen has recorded over 1,000 catches for over 12,000 yards and 70 touchdowns, finishing last year with 81 receptions and 777 yards for the Los Angeles Chargers.
- Allen slots in as the Colts' WR3, joining a passing attack featuring Josh Downs and Tyler Warren, providing quarterback Daniel Jones with another reliable target.
- Competition in the AFC South remains stiff, but the team believes this addition provides the final piece for a 2026 playoff push after an 8-2 start last season.
