Another star wide receiver has suffered an injury in this afternoon’s Pro Bowl.

Earlier in the game, Pittsburgh Steelers’ standout wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster suffered a knee injury on a pass attempt.

Now, Los Angeles Chargers’ wide receiver Keenan Allen has suffered a similar injury.

“And now WR Keenan Allen is questionable to return with a knee contusion. He and Steelers WR JuJu Smith-Schuster both suffered same injury and are questionable. With AFC leading 17-0 not expecting either to return,” ESPN reports.
