FantasyPros Articles on Cyrus Allen
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. Allen is a fun bench stash to see how the wideouts ahead of him perform. Moreover, the Chiefs have a Week 5 bye, the first week of byes in the NFL. If Rice or Worthy aren't cutting it through Kansas City's first four games, the bye could be the perfect onboarding time for an enhanced role for Allen in Week 6.
STACKED’s take
Allen's college production and bye-week timing make him a high-upside bench stash.
Cyrus Allen could emerge as a fantasy football asset if Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy falter; he generated offseason buzz and was ranked 83rd on CBS Sports NFL Draft Dak Prescott Mike Renner's top 250 prospect list. In his final collegiate season at Cincinnati, Allen recorded 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 yards per route run, 10.8-yard aDOT, 1 drop (2.0%), and 12 receiving touchdowns. He's a fun bench stash, and the Chiefs' Week 5 bye could be the perfect onboarding time for an enhanced role in Week 6 if Rice or Worthy aren't cutting it through the first four games, per Josh Shepardson.
