Shock on the practice field: the Chiefs now have three starters on the injury report as Thursday’s session against the Broncos unfolds.QQ
Injuries are not trending in the right direction for Kansas City this week.
The Kansas City Chiefs are in the thick of preparations for their pivotal Week 11 matchup against the Denver Broncos.
A key starter was added to Kansas City’s injury report on Thursday, which could have a big impact on Sunday’s game. Other than that, there were no other changes from Wednesday. Let’s examine the Chiefs and Broncos’ injury latest updates.
Broncos’ Thursday injury report
Coming soon. . .
Travis Hunter’s rookie season has come to a disappointing end…
Chiefs’ Thursday injury report
| Player | Injury | W/TH |
| RB Isiah Pacheco | Knee | DNP/DNP |
| DE George Karlaftis | Thump | LP/LP |
| WR Xavier Worthy | Ankle | —/LP |
| OT Josh Simmons | NIR (Personal) | FP/FP |
| OT Jawaan Taylor | Knee/Shoulder | FP/FP |
| OG Trey Smith | Back | FP/FP |
| S Jaden Hicks | Pectoral | FP/FP |
| DE Charles Omenihu | Ankle | FP/FP |
KEY: DNP = Did not participate | LP = Limited participation | FP = Full participation | NIR = Not injury related
Observations:
- Worthy popped up on Thursday’s injury report after not being listed on Wednesday. The fact that he was able to at least participate in a limited fashion is positive, but the Chiefs will monitor his ankle injury closely.
- Karlaftis was limited for the second consecutive day with a thumb injury.
- Pacheco’s availability for Sunday doesn’t look promising as he missed his second straight practice with a knee injury.
- Simmons practiced in full again on Thursday. We should find out from coach Andy Reid tomorrow whether or not Simmons showed enough to be ready to play on Sunday.
