Summary
Cyrus Allen is an explosive slot receiver and deep-ball specialist who flourished at Cincinnati after stops at Louisiana Tech and Texas A&M. Known for his elite acceleration and big-play ability, he tied a school record with 13 touchdowns in 2025. While he lacks the physical size to dominate high-point situations, his ability to create separation on vertical routes and generate yards after the catch makes him a dangerous scoring threat.
About

Strengths
