INGLEWOOD, CALIFORNIA – DECEMBER 16: Keenan Allen #13 of the Los Angeles Chargers reacts after scoring a touchdown during the fourth quarter against the Kansas City Chiefs at SoFi Stadium on December 16, 2021 in Inglewood, California. 
The Los Angeles Chargers have decided to part ways with their other superstar wide receiver in a blockbuster move.

One day after releasing Mike Williams in a cap-saving move, the team has decided to trade Pro Bowler Keenan Allen to the Chicago Bears in exchange for the surprisingly low price of a fourth-round pick, according to FOX Sports’ Jay Glazer:

According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Chargers asked Allen to take a pay cut on Thursday, but the soon-to-be 32-year-old refused to do so. As such, the decision was made to deal him to the team that’s presumably about to land USC’s Caleb Williams with the first overall pick:

#Chargers approached star WR Keenan Allen about a pay cut today, which he declined. The team then dealt him to the #Bears, who continue to load up. A wild offseason in Chicago.

If Williams is the pick, his weapons will consist of Allen, D.J. Moore, D’Andre Swift and Khalil Herbert. Exciting times are ahead in Chicago, indeed.
