Kansas City Chiefs News
Cyrus Allen, Tests Reveal Shin Bruise for Cyrus Allen
Kansas City Chiefs rookie wide receiver Cyrus Allen (shin, leg) was carted off during Saturday's practice with an apparent leg injury. Tests on the Chiefs rookie revealed a shin bruise; nothing was torn or broken, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. This was the best-case scenario for Allen, as he appeared to avoid a serious injury. The Chiefs have been dealing with injuries at wide receiver as Xavier Worthy also exited Saturday's practice with a shoulder injury. At the same time, Rashee Rice is still not 100% from knee surgery in May. The 23-year-old has had an outstanding training camp as he continues to build a rapport with quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Kansas City selected Allen with the 176th pick in the 2026 NFL Draft after he caught 51 passes for 674 yards and 13 touchdowns across 13 games in his senior year at Cincinnati. Allen is considered day-to-day for now and will likely receive a few days off from training camp to let his shin heal.

Xavier Worthy, Xavier Worthy Leaves Practice Early on Saturday With Shoulder Injury
The Kansas City Chiefs announced that wide receiver Xavier Worthy (shoulder) left Saturday's training camp practice early with a shoulder injury, according to Dan Graziano of ESPN. Worthy is still being evaluated, but this is not what the Chiefs want to hear after he suffered a serious shoulder injury in Week 1 of last season that compromised the rest of his season. The 23-year-old speedster and former 28th overall pick in 2024 from the University of Texas caught 42 passes for 532 yards and just one touchdown on 73 targets and 14 games in 2025 in his sophomore campaign. Worthy had been fully healthy going into training camp and was looking like a prime bounce-back candidate before Saturday's shoulder injury. It remains to be seen if it's related to his shoulder injury from a year ago. In addition to Worthy, impressive rookie wideout Cyrus Allen suffered a knee injury in practice on Saturday, and WR1 Rashee Rice is still not 100% from knee surgery in May, so it's safe to say KC's WR corps is being tested early in training camp. The biggest beneficiary of these injuries figures to be Tyquan Thornton. Stay tuned for more details on Worthy's shoulder injury.

Cyrus Allen, Cyrus Allen Carted Off on Saturday with Apparent Knee Injury
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Cyrus Allen (knee) left the practice field in a cart on Saturday due to an apparent left knee injury, according to ESPN's Nate Taylor. Per Taylor, the injury occurred due to a collision during a special teams rep in practice. A fifth-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, Allen recorded 51 catches for 674 yards and 13 touchdowns across 13 games in his final collegiate season at Cincinnati. The 23-year-old had reportedly been one of the standout performers of the early days of Chiefs camp. While the severity of Allen's injury is not yet clear, this appears to be an unfortunate setback for the promising rookie. The Chiefs enter the year in need of reliable pass-catching talent, so Allen could play a prominent role in Kansas City if he's able to avoid significant missed time.

Rashee Rice, Rashee Rice Clearly Not 100 Percent Recovered From Knee Surgery
Arrowhead Pride's Ron Kopp Jr. writes that Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice (knee) has been leaving training camp practice early each day for planned rehabilitation. Rice clearly is not 100% recovered from his knee surgery in May. The 26-year-old wideout had a cleanup procedure on his knee in the offseason, and the Chiefs have elected to ease him into camp workouts. It's definitely something to watch this summer, but as long as Rice doesn't suffer any sort of setback, he figures to be ready for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season on Monday night against the division-rival Denver Broncos. Rice's absence from team drills has allowed rookie receiver Cyrus Allen to stand out early on. When healthy, Rice will be quarterback Patrick Mahomes' go-to target in the passing game. The former second-rounder from SMU had nearly 1,000 receiving yards and seven touchdowns in 16 games as a rookie, but he's played in just 12 games the last two seasons combined due to injuries and off-the-field issues. Rice is a risk/reward No. 2 fantasy wideout entering his fourth year in the NFL. RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 16 WR for 2026.

Rashee Rice, Rashee Rice Being Eased in After Knee Surgery
The Athletic's Jesse Newell reports that Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice (knee) is still sitting out live drills in training camp as he recovers from offseason knee surgery. Rice's absence has allowed young players like Cyrus Allen and Andrew Armstrong to get more run with the first-team offense early in camp. When everyone is fully healthy, Rice, Xavier Worthy, and Tyquan Thornton are the Chiefs' top three receivers, while Allen and recent draft pick Jalen Royals figure to be rotational players for depth at the position. The Chiefs are in no rush to get the 26-year-old Rice back into the fold, but the full expectation is that he'll be a full-go for the start of the 2026 regular season. Injuries and off-the-field issues have made him somewhat of a risk as a fantasy wideout, but when he's been on the field, there's no arguing that he has high-end upside as quarterback Patrick Mahomes' favorite weapon. The former second-rounder in 2023 from SMU had 938 receiving yards and seven touchdowns as a rookie, but he played in a combined 12 games the last two years. If Rice can put in a full season in 2026, he has clear WR1 upside when it's all said and done.
