What happened: Allen bruised his shin Saturday after standing out early in training camp. He rejoined the Chiefs in pads Friday.
Why it matters: The return gives Allen more time to build on his early camp work before the preseason begins. Those practices will help shape his role in the upcoming season.
By the numbers: Allen returned six days after sustaining the shin bruise.
What to watch: Watch Allen’s practice workload and whether he participates in the preseason opener.
