From the article
If both falter, Cyrus Allen could emerge as a fantasy football asset during the season. He'll likely open the year with a minimal role, but he's generated offseason buzz.
STACKED’s take
Bench stash with upside if Rice/Worthy underperform; Chiefs bye aids Week 6 role expansion.
Allen is a bench-stash sleeper at ADP 182 (WR71) with upside if Rashee Rice or Xavier Worthy falter. The source is doubling down on avoiding Rice and Worthy near their ADPs, noting Rice looked slow in training camp and Worthy sprained his shoulder in early August. Allen generated offseason buzz and was ranked 83rd on CBS Sports' Mike Renner's top 250 prospect list. In his final collegiate season at Cincinnati, Allen posted 273 routes, 69 targets, 0.25 TPRR, 49 receptions (3.8 per game), 661 receiving yards (50.8 per game), 13.5 yards per reception, 5.5 yards after the catch per reception, 2.42 YPRR, 10.8-yard aDOT, 1 drop (2.0%), 10 receiving TDs, and 1 rushing TD. The Chiefs' Week 5 bye could be a perfect onboarding time for an enhanced role for Allen in Week 6 if Rice or Worthy aren't producing through the first four games.
