From the episode

Keenan Allen was soaking up the safety blanket, the binky targets there for Justin Herbert when he's playing in chaos... Keenan has plateaued here a little bit, obviously, but still a useful player.

STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

Allen served as safety blanket; still useful despite past-prime status.

Keenan Allen served as a safety-blanket target for Justin Herbert in chaotic situations last year, soaking up binky targets on third-and-short. While no longer at his peak, Allen has plateaued as a useful player rather than declining off a cliff. His role limited McConkey's volume, but Allen's presence doesn't indicate complete decline—just a shift in his usage pattern.
