#Chargers WR Keenan Allen tore his ACL, but his other ligaments are intact. Will make rehab a small bit easier. Still pretty crappy, though

Allen suffered the injury in Week 1 against the Kansas City Chiefs after working his way all the back from a injury last season. San Diego must now try to move on without their number one scoring option.

Players around the league showed their support for Allen as he goes these hard times. We wish nothing but the best and a speedy recovery for Allen.
