The one and only season of Keenan Allen with the Bears in Chicago in 2024 was … well. It was banal. Nothing special. At least, this did not meet the expectations that accompany the trade against a player who has long been considered one of the best wide receivers in the NFL.
Allen finished the 2024 season with 70 catches for 744 yards and seven affected in 15 games, very good of his 108 catches for 1,243 yards and seven scores in 2023. He had a single match of 100 yards in a Bears uniform, but finished the strong season with five affected in the last seven games.
However, Allen’s impact in Chicago was forgettable.
Now, as a free agent without restriction in search of a destination when the third wave begins, there is a chance that the lasting heritage of Keenan Allen with the Bears will be frustrating.
If the bears do not bring Keenan Allen, I will always remember him for this hilarious piece 😭

According to recent ventilation of the best adjustments for the best free agents remainingAllen was linked to the Raiders of Las Vegas, whose need for the wide receiver is obvious.
“Las Vegas Raiders would also be suitable for Allen,” said Kristopher Knox to Bleacher Report. “Alongside Brock Bowers and Jakobi Meyers, the interior versatility of Allen would offer the offensive coordinator Chip Kelly of alignment options. It would also serve a reliable target for the new quarter-Arrière Geno Smith.”
This is bad news for the Bears hopes to win the Ballon de Boise State Ashton Jeanty ball carrier in the first round of the NFL 2025 draft.
Raiders are the biggest threat to fly Jeanty far from Chicago. But if there is a position that could attract GM John Spytek far from the electrifying ball carrier, it is a wide receiver. And with the Arizona Tetairoa McMillan classifying as a Fring-Top-10 prospect, there is a chance that the raiders will have no choice but to spend their first-round choice on him.
In other words, unless Keenan Allen exchanges his bear colors for money and black.
Allen’s signature would have the same impact on the broad receiver for Las Vegas that their trade for Geno Smith had in the quarter. Of course, the two age of veterans who should not Dissuriating the raiders from taking a talented and younger option in one or the other position, but their presence on the list would allow Las Vegas to rotate with more confidence.
I hope Allen makes the Chicago wears a solid and signs elsewhere. But if he becomes a raid, the chances that Ashton Jeanty also increases.
