The Los Angeles Chargers (3-0) will visit the New York Giants (0-3) in Week 4. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding WR Keenan Allen.

Should You Start or Sit Keenan Allen in Week 4?
Has enough been made about Keenan Allen’s start to 2025?
Since 2000, only five times has a player in his age-30 season or older recorded 60 receiving yards and a touchdown in each of the first three weeks of a season:
- Terrell Owens (2004)
- Randy Moss (2007)
- Brandon Marshall (2015)
- Mike Evans (2023)
- Allen (2025)
Through three weeks, Allen leads the Bolts in target rate (28.3% of his routes) and has five end zone targets. It is worth noting that we saw ups and downs from Allen last season (no 50-yard games until late November, but he also had a stretch with five scores in five games).
I feel good about saying that this is as good as it gets for Allen in 2025. That’s not to say that he’s going to fall off a cliff, posting top 20 finishes is simply hard to sustain (he’s done it in three straight games, a streak that Justin Jefferson never matched last year).
Allen is my second-favorite Charger receiver the rest of the way and a viable PPR flex moving forward.
