THE Kansas City Chiefs have been affected by numerous injuries on both sides of the ball this season. The latest injury, that of recently recruited DJ Humphries, at left tackle, further adds to the bad luck in terms of health.
Humphries left early in Sunday’s Week 14 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, replaced by former starter Wanya Mortos to finish the game. The veteran’s status was not immediately available because it was his first game since tearing his ACL a year ago while with the Arizona Cardinals.
“I don’t have any injury updates for you. We are right in the middle of this process, and we will just see how things are going. I know the tackle (DJ Humphries) is one of (those) problems there, so we’ll see how he does,” head coach Andy Reid said during his weekly Zoom call with reporters Monday. “He’s feeling a little better this morning. , but we’ll see where it goes from here after having an MRI. ”
Following the injury, former Chiefs left tackle Donovan Smith apparently responded on social networks with a GIF reminding the franchise that he won Super Bowl LVIII of his availability. Smith made a similar article a month ago, when the left tackle’s problems became evident to the football world.
