Coming into the Los Angeles Chargers' Week 10 matchup on Sunday Night Football with the Pittsburgh Steelers needing just one reception to tie and two to break tight end Antonio Gates' all-time franchise record of 955.

Allen was first targeted by Justin Herbert on the Bolts' second offensive possession of the game with a little under seven minutes remaining in the opening quarter, unsurprisingly on third down, only for the pass to result in an incompletion.
