Cyrus Allen continues to make headlines as one of the Chiefs' offensive standouts this training camp. Most recently, he beat the team's first-round defensive back, Mansoor Delane, during 1-on-1 drills, with the video coming courtesy of Fox 4 Kansas City's Harold Kuntz.
2026 Fantasy Football Impact: Chiefs Buzz Has Teeth
Allen came into the league without many expectations as a fifth-round draft pick that spent five seasons in college. He spent five years between Louisiana Tech, Texas A&M, and Cincinnati that were largely unproductive.
At no point during Allen’s collegiate career did he achieve 16.0 PPR fantasy points per game (PPG) or a 20% target share. That typically doesn't lead to future production at the next level.
But when Allen was on the field at Cincinnati in his final season, he drew targets on 25.3% of his routes and averaged 2.47 yards per route.
Allen’s training-camp buzz and per-route flashes in his prospect profile make it reasonable to believe this preseason success could carry into the regular season.
