Allen traded to 49ers; no longer fits Colts' rebuild plans despite 40 catches.

Traded from Colts to 49ers for a 2027 sixth-round pick. At 34 years old on an expiring contract, Allen was brought to Indianapolis in August to provide experience and reliability but was not going to factor into the Colts' long-term plans during their rebuild. Despite recording 40 receptions for 351 yards and one touchdown through eight games, he is no longer the explosive receiver he once was, though his route running and ability to create separation underneath remained useful even as the Colts' passing offense struggled.
