Allen joins injury-ravaged 49ers receiving corps with elite QB Brock Purdy.

Allen is being traded from the Colts to the 49ers mid-season, joining a San Francisco receiving corps severely depleted by injuries. The 49ers have lost Ricky Pearsall for the season (PCL surgery), De'Zhaun Stribling is out with an ankle injury and has yet to return, Mike Evans has missed the last two games with Achilles and ribs problems, Deebo Samuel Sr. has been out three games with a hamstring injury, and Christian Kirk is on injured reserve with a meniscus issue. With quarterback Brock Purdy posting a 109.8 passer rating (second best of his career) and leading all qualifying NFL passers in EPA per dropback (+0.25), Allen will serve as an immediate weapon in a high-performing offense.
