Chargers Keenan Allen who felt stuck in 2022 offense set to play CeeDee Lamb-type role under Kellen Moore from seestyle's blog

has been one of the most consistently productive wide receivers in the for e sentially his entire career. He had a string of five consecutive seasons where he Buddy Howell Jersey recorded between 97 to106 catches, 992 to 1,393 yards, and six to eight touchdown receptions. That streak was snapped last year due to injuries, but he still played at a 16-game pace of 106 receptions for 1,203 yards and six touchdowns.In recent years, Allen's role has mostly seen him operate out of the slot. But that won't be the case anymore, according to the man himself. Sony Michel Jersey The this offseason moved on from former offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi, hiring former coordinator in his stead. And in the new offense, Allen gets to do more."With Lombardi, I was stuck at the slot the whole time," Allen said, . "I'm inside and outside now, we're all kinda inside and outside now, playing everything."According to Pro Football Focus, the past two seasons under Lombardi saw Allen Ben Skowronek Jersey record the highest slot rates of his career to date.

So, he certainly moved around a bit more than Allen did over the past couple of years. (And the Cowboys have said they kept him primarily in the slot as a rookie due to the abbreviated offseason program that resulted from COVID-19.) Allen noted that the Chargers watch Dallas' offense pretty much every day as they install their new system, which is supposed to open up the field and encourage to push the ball deeper and be more aggre sive. That may mean slightly fewer underneath targets for Allen JuJu Hughes Jersey and , but if those targets come with more room to run, they could be even more efficient than they've been over the past few years.
