The Chicago Bears are acquiring WR Keenan Allen from the Los Angeles Chargers in exchange for a fourth-round pick.
Huddle Up: Assuming the Bears select a quarterback with the No. 1 pick, Allen should be a reliable safety valve for the rookie.

Updating a previous report, impending free-agent TE Gerald Everett (Chargers) reportedly agreed to terms on a two-year contract worth $12 million with the Chicago Bears on Tuesday, March 12. The deal could be worth up to $14 million including incentives and includes $6.1 million fully guaranteed.
Huddle Up: Everett's money is not exactly chump change, which means he figures to see plenty of playing time. That means Cole Kmet's fantasy value will take a hit even if new offensive coordinator Shane Waldron utilizes a lot of 12 personnel looks. Both tight ends could fall into the TE2 range if Chicago ends up adding a quality receiver in the first or second round of the draft. For now, consider Kmet a low-end TE1 and Everett a decent TE2 in fantasy.

Philadelphia Eagles impending free agent RB D'Andre Swift agreed to a three-year deal worth $24 million with the Chicago Bears, according to sources Monday, March 11. The deal includes $15.3 million guaranteed.
Huddle Up: Coming off a career season, Swift will now take over as the RB1 in Chicago. Second-year back Roschon Johnson will serve as a change-of-pace back, but Swift should have weekly RB2 value with RB1 upside in Chicago.

Chicago Bears TE Cole Kmet (forearm) said he suffered a fractured forearm during the regular season finale but does not need surgery. He said he will be fine for the start of offseason workouts.
Huddle Up: Kmet was an important part of the passing game this past season and should continue to have a big role next season especially if the Bears have a rookie quarterback. Kmet can be a low-end No. 1 tight end in most fantasy leagues.

Los Angeles Chargers WR Keenan Allen expects to be back with the team in 2024. "I don't see myself going anywhere," he said on Thursday, Feb. 1.
Huddle Up: Allen has a massive $34.71 million cap hit in 2024, which is why speculation has run rampant about the Chargers possibly wanting to part ways. However, the 31-year-old showed he still has plenty left in the tank after tallying 1,243 yards and seven touchdowns in 13 games. As long as he doesn't get moved to a worse situation, Allen will be a WR1 option in 2024.

Huddle Up: Herbert had been listed as questionable on the injury report after sustaining a back injury during practice Thursday, Jan. 4, which caused him to miss the following day's session. However, he is expected to receive the bulk of the carries for Chicago this afternoon and can be a starting option in fantasy leagues if he is active.

Los Angeles Chargers WR Keenan Allen (heel) did not participate in practice Friday, Jan. 5, and has been ruled out for Week 18.
Huddle Up: Josh Palmer, Alex Erickson and Quentin Johnston likely will be the main receivers with Allen not playing. Palmer probably has the most fantasy value among the three and could be a flex option in leagues.

Chicago Bears WR DJ Moore (ankle) fully participated in practice Friday, Jan. 5, and is not on the injury report for Week 18.
Huddle Up: Moore has been the focal point in the passing game the entire season and should see plenty of targets again this week. He should be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Los Angeles Chargers WR Keenan Allen (heel) did not take part in practice once again on Thursday, Jan. 4.
Huddle Up: Allen, who was a WR1 when healthy, looks set to miss the final game of the season. If that's the case, he'll finish with 1,243 yards and seven touchdowns in 13 games, showing he still has plenty left in the tank. If Allen sits, Joshua Palmer (concussion) is the next best option and would be on the flex radar, but he's also trending toward not playing. That would leave Jalen Guyton and Quentin Johnston as the top options in the Chargers' passing attack, but neither can be trusted in lineups.

Chicago Bears TE Cole Kmet (knee) was upgraded to a limited practice on Thursday, Jan. 4.
Huddle Up: Thursday's limited practice is a slight improvement over last week, as he registered two DNPs before getting in a limited session on Friday. He was limited to 13 offensive snaps in Chicago's Week 17 win. Expect Kmet to handle more work than that this weekend, but it seems clear he isn't close to 100 percent, making him difficult to trust in DFS or Week 18 league championship games.

Chicago Bears WR DJ Moore (ankle) was limited in practice for a second consecutive day on Thursday, Jan. 4.
Huddle Up: Moore is having a career year, having already set personal bests with 1,300 receiving yards and eight receiving touchdowns. Sitting on 92 receptions, he only needs two more catches to set a career high in catches as well. He should be fine to play in Week 18 against the Green Bay Packers.

Chicago Bears RB Khalil Herbert (back) was added to the team's practice report with a back injury on Thursday, Jan. 4.
Huddle Up: It suggests that Herbert tweaked or hurt his back on Thursday since he was not on the practice report on Wednesday. More details are sure to follow, but it would appear as though Herbert is now at risk of not playing in Week 18 against the Green Bay Packers. If that ends up being the case, rookie Roschon Johnson could get the nod and be worth using in DFS and in Week 18 league championship games as D'Onta Foreman appears to be getting phased out. Foreman was a healthy scratch in Week 17.

Los Angeles Chargers WR Keenan Allen (heel) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Jan. 3.
Huddle Up: Allen has been sidelined for several weeks and probably will not be able to play in Week 18 if he does not practice at some point this week. Fantasy players can check on his status later in the week but probably will not have Allen available.

Chicago Bears WR DJ Moore (ankle) was limited in practice on Wednesday, Jan. 3.
Huddle Up: There has been nothing to suggest that Moore is in danger of missing Week 18. After a few lean weeks, the Bears wideout returned to his WR1 status in Week 17, posting nine catches for 159 yards and one touchdown.

Chicago Bears TE Cole Kmet (knee) did not take part in practice on Wednesday, Jan. 3.
Huddle Up: Kmet started off last week the same way before suiting up, although he only played 13 snaps and posted a bagel for fantasy owners. As a result, Kmet, who is typically a borderline TE1, will be a risky play if he suits up.
