During his press conference, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Cyrus Allen reflected on his experience playing at Arrowhead Stadium | @EdEastonJr
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Cyrus Allen addressed reporters in a press conference for the first time shortly after being selected 176th overall in the 2026 NFL Draft. He expressed his excitement for his potential role after being drafted and reflected on his experience playing college football games at Arrowhead Stadium. “Man, I feel like that’s a great spot,” said Allen, “For me, playing special teams and being around a great quarterback like Patrick Mahomes himself, and learning from a great coach like (Head Coach) Andy Reid and winning a lot of games.
” Allen spent only last season at Cincinnati after spending one season at Texas A&M in 2024 and two seasons at Louisiana Tech from 2022 to 2023. He appeared in 44 career games, recording 2,221 receiving yards and 22 touchdowns on 137 receptions. He recalled playing at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in a recent game between Cincinnati and Nebraska.
“It was good to play there (GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium). I think I played there one other time or been there one other time, but it was good. I felt like I was in my groove that game,” said Allen, “I made a lot of plays that game, and when it came down to the comedown, I just felt comfortable in that stadium.
So, I’m excited to be there. ” Was at home before he knew it was home ❤️ @cyrusallen_ pic. twitter.
