INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Chargers receiver Keenan Allen didn’t play after halftime in Los Angeles’ season opener because of a hamstring injury. Allen got hurt in the second quarter Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders. He had four catches on four targets for 66 yards before his injury, including a 42-yard gain. The five-time Pro Bowl selection has been one of the NFL’s most productive receivers over the past half-decade. He had 106 catches for 1,138 yards and six touchdowns last season. DeAndre Carter stepped into the spot usually occupied by Allen in the Chargers’ offense.
