Is Keenan Allen having regrets about being traded from the Los Angeles Chargers, where he had Justin Herbert for a quarterback, to now having Chicago Bears rookie QB Caleb Williams?
Caleb Williams, the Bears’ first-round selection, is the center of attention in Chicago, and if he takes the job and makes it his own, there’s little doubt that the quarterback will rule the Windy City. After spending several fruitful years in Los Angeles, Keenan Allen joined the Bears. He is used to catching passes from players like Justin Herbert and Philip Rivers.
It appears he misses those days.
Keenan Allen’s recent criticism of a Caleb Williams’ pass during training has sparked division among fans of Williams and Justin Herbert.
Allen could be heard yelling “Hell nah” after Caleb Williams tossed him a terrible floating pass that could either be picked off or set him up to take a major hit in a real game.

6-time Pro Bowl WR Keenan Allen Gets Traded Before The NFL Draft

The Los Angeles Chargers sent star wide receiver Keenan Allen to the Chicago Bears in exchange for a fourth-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft back in March.
Prior to being traded to the Bears in March for a fourth-round pick in the 2024 draft, Allen played his first 11 years of professional football with the Los Angeles Chargers. Despite participating in just 13 games in 2023, the 32-year-old recorded a career-high 108 receptions for 1,243 yards and seven touchdowns, capping up his sixth Pro Bowl season, via ESPN.com.
Caleb Williams, the 2024 No. 1 pick and rookie quarterback, should benefit greatly from Allen’s presence. It would be prudent for the Bears to retain Allen past this season if he and Williams click well and help the team to victory.
