What happened

Cyrus Allen was carted off during Saturday's practice but was diagnosed with a shin bone bruise. Reid indicated the swelling needs to subside and that Allen should be back within a couple of days. The rookie had been impressing with first-team opportunities early in camp.

Fantasy impact

Allen remains a high-upside depth piece and potential sleeper in deeper leagues. The short absence should not derail his chance to earn a roster spot or rotational role. Continue monitoring practice reports for his return this week.
