San Diego Chargers receiver Keenan Allen was a disaster last week. He didn't even get a target in the first half and finished with a paltry two catches for three yards against the New England Patriots in a loss. Cornerback Darrelle Revis locked him up all game and quarterback Philip Rivers had no interest in the second-year receiver.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 15: Keenan Allen is a questionable option, but high upside
Keenan Allen was a no-show last week against the Patriots. Should his fantasy owners trust him this week?

This week, he won't get Revis and should have much better success against the Denver Broncos. Allen had one of his better games of the season against the Broncos back in Week 8, catching nine passes for 73 yards and one score in the loss. He was targeted 13 times in the game and should get double-digit looks again.
The Broncos have been trending down as a pass defense on the season and are right in the middle as far as matchup difficulty goes for receivers. The Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins had a lot of success against them in the past three weeks, so the Chargers should be fine as a unit.
Fantasy impact: His fantasy owners are going to have a tough time plugging him in after last week, but he should be viewed as a WR15-20 with upside.
