INGLEWOOD, Calif. -- With a catch in the fourth quarter of the Chargers ' 25-10 win over the Steelers, wide receiver Keenan Allen became the franchise's all-time leader in receptions with 956 catches, passing Pro Football Hall of Fame tight end Antonio Gates.

Going into Sunday's game, Allen needed only two receptions and it appeared as if he wouldn't get the record after having only one catch late in the fourth quarter. But on the Chargers' final drive, the team ran a shovel pass to Allen to get him over the hump. The Chargers' sideline erupted with joy after the play.

After the game, Allen told NBC that he drew up the toss play.
