Allen joins 49ers' injury-depleted receiving corps with Purdy at career-best efficiency.

Keenan Allen traded from Colts to 49ers mid-season to address injuries in San Francisco's receiving corps. Allen, a six-time Pro Bowler in his 14th NFL season, joins a team that has lost Ricky Pearsall for the season (PCL surgery), De'Zhaun Stribling to ankle injury, Mike Evans to Achilles and ribs issues, Deebo Samuel Sr. to hamstring injury, and Christian Kirk to meniscus injury on injured reserve. The 49ers are 7-1 and quarterback Brock Purdy is playing at a career-high 109.8 passer rating while leading all qualifying NFL passers in EPA per dropback (+0.25), positioning Allen as an immediate target for a high-performing offense.
