Keenan Allen and the Los Angeles Chargers will look to salvage what’s turning into a lost season when they face the surging Jacksonville Jaguars squad in Week 10.
Fantasy football start/sit, Week 10: Is Chargers WR Keenan Allen worth playing vs. Jaguars?
Keenan Allen is facing one of the worst matchups any receiver has in Week 10.

Allen, who missed most of 2016 with an ACL tear, is in a bit of a slump as he continues to work his way back to being the star receiver that fantasy owners loved having. He’s had under 70 receiving yards in four-straight games, and he hasn’t caught a touchdown since Week 1.
Frankly, Allen is a sneaky cut candidate as you begin your push for the playoffs. He’ll now get a very bad matchup this Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Receivers against Jacksonville have largely been a no-no this year. They’ve shut down the likes of DeAndre Hopkins, T.Y. Hilton, and A.J. Green, so it’s hard to see Allen fairing any better.
Fantasy Advice: Allen will go against a Jaguars defense allowing the fewest fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Make sure you place Allen on the bench for Week 10.
