Cyrus Allen, WR (KC)

Returns from shin injury

Allen (shin) returned to practice Friday morning, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.

The rookie fifth-round pick was one of Kansas City's early standouts at training camp, building chemistry with Patrick Mahomes while taking some snaps on the first-team offense. Allen then suffered a shin bruise Saturday and missed most of the week, but he's back in action Friday to continue making his case for a Week 1 role.
