As respected a route-runner as the NFL’s last decade has had to offer, Keenan Allen’s start-and-stop abilities have set paths for Pro Bowl appearances, a 10,000-yard career, and on Nov. 17, 2024, a nearly-heroic snag in the blue-and-orange. Decelerating towards the sidelines with the Bears close enough to taste revenge against archrival Green Bay, Allen positions himself for a clutch 12-yard reception, inching Chicago to the 30-yard line — and within game-winning field goal range in the final minute. A blocked field goal would ultimately give the Packers a 20-19 victory, but Allen collected four catches (on eight targets) and 41 yards.
