One of the noteworthy remaining players in NFL free agency is Keenan Allen. The 33-year-old receiver is still a big target in the red zone and can provide a team with much-needed depth. Here are the three best landing spots for Allen.

The Miami Dolphins are all about speed on the outside. Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle are arguably the fastest duo in the game.
Hill and Waddle had down years for their standards, but much of that can be attributed to quarterback Tua Tagovailoa missing games.
If Tagovailoa stays healthy, Hill and Waddle are in play for 1,000-yard seasons.
The slot is where Miami can improve.
Malik Washington and Tahj Washington provided little to no production out of the slot last year.
Even in a down year, Allen still managed to have 70 catches for 744 yards and seven touchdowns in Chicago last season.
Allen would be a vital component of the Dolphins’ offense if he signed with Miami.

The Jets offense is going to look completely different in 2025.
It all starts with the quarterback position. Aaron Rodgers is now in Pittsburgh. Justin Fields, one of the Steelers’ quarterbacks from a season ago, is now with the Jets.
Fields is nowhere close to Rodgers in terms of arm talent. Expect the Jets to run the ball more under first-year coach Aaron Glenn.
That being said, the Jets still have a true No. 1 option in Garrett Wilson. The 24-year-old had career highs in receptions (101), yards (1,104), and touchdowns (7).
Outside of Wilson, the Jets need help. Allen Lazard has not proven he can be an effective receiver without Aaron Rodgers. Josh Reynolds, Tyler Johnson, Malachi Corley, and Xavier Gipson are likely temporary solutions.
Allen can step right in and provide much-needed assistance in the slot.

“I love the game and I dreamed about playing Quarterback..
I wanted to be all in and the way that I was welcomed into Pittsburgh was very cool..
I’m gonna give the Steelers everything that I’ve got and I’m gonna empty the tank” @AaronRodgers12 #PMSLive https://t.co/UyNGbsxI8V pic.twitter.com/GrwBR5oYBE

Did you know the Pittsburgh Steelers have a new quarterback? His name is Aaron Rodgers, and 2025 will likely be his last season.
Rodgers’ top target in Pittsburgh will be the newly acquired DK Metcalf. Outside of Metcalf, the No. 2 receiver position is up for grabs.
Tight end Pat Freiermuth is likely Rodgers’ second option behind Metcalf.
An assortment of receivers will be battling for the third position. Robert Woods, Calvin Austin III, Scotty Miller, Ben Skowronek, and Roman Wilson are in the mix.
However, Allen could step right in and fit seamlessly with Rodgers.
