For anyone of the mind that Keenan Allen has slowed a step, he just hit a milestone faster than any wide receiver before.
Allen recorded his 1,000th career reception in the Los Angeles Chargers' game Sunday against the Washington Commanders, reaching the mark in his 159th contest.
With 998 receptions coming into Sunday, Allen hauled in landmark No. 1,000 on a Justin Herbert pass in the second quarter for a 4-yard gain. The catch propelled him past Hall of Famer Marvin Harrison, who had hit 1,000 catches in 167 career games, for the fastest to ever hit the mark.
The 33-year-old Allen played the first 11 seasons of his career with the Chargers, earning six Pro Bowl selections. He was traded to the Chicago Bears ahead of the 2024 campaign and had a somewhat underwhelming showing (70 receptions for 744 yards in 15 games).
Since rejoining the Bolts late this summer, though, Allen has rekindled his old form with old pal Herbert.
He might not be done providing milestone moments, either, as his 1,000th catch put him at 930 with the Chargers, just 25 away from Hall of Famer Antonio Gates' franchise record of 955.
Allen's back with the Bolts and hauling in history.
