BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4
ANALYSIS: Chicago Bears wide receiver Keenan Allen was targeted seven times in his team's Week 8 loss to the Washington Commanders, but was only able to haul in two of those for 39 yards. It's been a largely unproductive season for the former Los Angeles Charger, but it's not entirely his fault.

The Caleb Williams experiment hasn't gone very well outside of a few games against some of the NFL's worst pass defenses. There simply isn't enough passing volume to go around to Chicago's wideout trio of Allen, D.J. Moore, and Rome Odunze, and tight end Cole Kmet.
Williams threw for just 131 passing yards last game, despite the defense playing exceptionally well and having the supporting cast he's been blessed with. There's plenty of target competition with what limited volume is produced, anyway. Allen has zero games above 50 yards receiving this season.
Add a concerning injury history and it's unlikely he'll have big games without touchdowns, which are hard to rely on. He should be sat until further notice.

The wide receiver position has an advantage over the running back position in PPR scoring formats, typically. Receivers' main job of catching the football leads to them scoring more points per touch, and those WRs that consistently get high volume can produce great results with a strong floor. Not every WR is like this, though, […]
