Rookie leaves practice after suffering injury at Chiefs training camp
· Yahoo Sports
The Kansas City Chiefs may be without rookie wide receiver Cyrus Allen in the coming days after the former Cincinnati Bearcat sustained a lower-body injury in a collision with a teammate at a training camp practice session on August 1.
Allen was selected by Kansas City in the fifth round in the 2026 NFL Draft and is fighting for a spot on the Chiefs' 53-man roster as the team looks to rebuild from its disastrous regular-season campaign last year.
