Keenan Allen is now 1-of-3 passing in his NFL career.
The stellar Chargers wideout took a backward pass from Justin Herbert on Sunday in Minnesota and had his choice of either Jushua Palmer or Mike Williams to find for a reception.
He hit Williams, who cruised into the end zone for a 49-yard TD that gave LA a 20-10 lead over the reeling Vikings after the PAT.

The news wasn’t good for LAC as Williams later was carted off with a leg injury and the Vikings got a pair of TD passes from Kirk Cousins to overcome the deficit.
