Keenan Allen was asked today if he could see himself in Chicago beyond this season.

“Yeah, absolutely,” Allen said this afternoon. “We already have great chemistry. Great friends have already been made, and the city is beautiful. The team is coming together nice, so absolutely.”

A recent report by ESPN’s Dan Graziano said that Allen and his agent have already approached the Bears about an extension.

Allen would like to stay in Chicago. DJ Moore wants him there, too. This much we know. We don’t know whether the veteran wide receiver fits into Ryan Poles’ long-term vision.
