SAN JOSE - The San Francisco 49ers acquired wide receiver Keenan Allen from the Indianapolis Colts on Tuesday, Nov. 10, in exchange for a 2027 sixth-round draft pick, the Colts announced. The club said the deal was made ahead of the NFL trade deadline, which the league set at 4 p.m. New York time (1 p.m. PT) Tuesday.

Allen signed with Indianapolis as a free agent in August. In eight games with the Colts this season, he caught 40 passes for 351 yards and one touchdown, the team said. His 1,095 career receptions rank eighth in NFL history.

The 49ers had not posted their own announcement on their news or 2026 transactions pages as of 1:55 p.m. PT Tuesday. The trade also did not yet appear on the NFL's November transaction list when that page was checked at the same time.
