General manager John Lynch’s latest move addresses the 49ers’ depleted wide receiver group.
San Francisco played its Week 9 game against the Las Vegas Raiders with Brandin Cooks and Jordan Watkins as the starting wide receivers.
Star free-agent acquisition Mike Evans has been a revelation for the 49ers this season, but he has missed the last two games with Achilles soreness.
Deebo Samuel, back with the 49ers after one season with the Washington Commanders, has been out since Week 5 with a hamstring strain.
The 49ers also brought in veteran Christian Kirk, but he appeared in just one game and didn’t catch any passes before injuring his meniscus and going on injured reserve.
San Francisco activated Demarcus Robinson off injured reserve to take Kirk’s roster spot before their Week 9 matchup.
Now, the 49ers add a player in Allen who should step into the starting lineup against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 10.
In eight games with Indianapolis this season, Allen recorded 40 receptions for 351 yards and one touchdown.
