Allen emerging as Mahomes' favorite target in camp; could fill No. 1 WR void.

Cyrus Allen, Kansas City Chiefs fifth-round pick from Cincinnati, has generated significant hype early in training camp despite not being listed in official OPOY odds. Early in camp with Rashee Rice not working team, Allen has been Patrick Mahomes' favorite target. With Mahomes yet to establish a true No. 1 wide receiver since Tyreek Hill left Kansas City and Travis Kelce in the final stages of his career, Allen could emerge as that guy.
