PFHOF ambassador shares insane stat for Kansas City Chiefs' rookie WR

The Kansas City Chiefs will rely heavily on their rookies from the 2026 NFL Draft next season, and with a few months left to prepare for the rigors of a new campaign, hype is already building behind one of the team's fifth-round picks. Former Cincinnati Bearcats wide receiver Cyrus Allen was an underrated prospect in this year's draft class, and had to wait until Day 3 of the Annual Player Selection Meeting to hear his name called. Though it is unclear how Chiefs head coach Andy Reid will decide to use Allen in 2026, a key insight from Pro Football Hall of Fame International Ambassador Steve Flack may hint at the rookie's potential utility in Kansas City's offense.

Take a look at what Flack had to say about Allen in a post to his official Twitter account: CYRUS ALLEN, @Chiefs WR In 2025, Allen, the #176 Pick in the 2026 @NFL Draft, produced 11 receiving TDs on 47 receptions and a 115. 7 Passer Rating when Targeted (Per @PFF ) #ChiefsKingdom #Chiefs #KansasCity #NFL #NFLX #nfldraftday #NFLDraft #NFLTwitter #NFLFootball #NFLNews pic. twitter.
