The LIV golfer is rooting for the Chargers in the NFL this season and has praised their wide receiver, Keenan Allen, in their recent game. The 33-year-old wide receiver has been impressive with his performance.

"So fun having Keenan back!"
The Chargers had a marvelous start to the new season. They won against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 1 and had a dominating week against the Raiders, winning their second straight event.
Keenan Allen signed a deal with the Chargers, who have a team value of $6 billion (via Forbes), last month. He signed a one-year contract worth around $8.5 million, and in his first week, he scored a touchdown. Mickelson had shared his excitement to have Allen back with the Chargers in a post on Sept 6. He wrote:
"It is so nice having Keenan Allen back with the Chargers"
Notably, Keenan Allen played for the Chargers from 2013 to 2023, but then he was traded to the Chicago Bears for a fourth-round pick in the 2024 draft. Ahead of this year's season, he returned to the Chargers.
