Chiefs: 'Early Star' of Camp Suffers Concerning Injury After Collision
A rookie who was lighting up the practice field at training camp this summer for the Kansas City Chiefs suffered an injury.
The Kansas City Chiefs experienced a troubling incident during their training camp on Saturday. Rookie wide receiver Cyrus Allen, who had been hailed as an early star by head coach Andy Reid, suffered a concerning injury. According to ESPN's Nate Taylor, Allen collided with cornerback Kaiir Elam during a special teams play. The collision left Allen needing assistance to leave the practice field, suggesting he sustained a left knee injury.
Allen was subsequently carted back to the training facility for further evaluation. Despite the setback, Allen's promising start to camp raised hopes for the Chiefs' receiving corps as they await the return of injured star Rashee Rice.
