The Kansas City Chiefs have seen several key players go down due to injury at their training camp practices in St. Joseph, Missouri, and Andy Reid has been keeping reporters abreast of any updates regarding their status during his post-practice press conferences.
In his opening statement on Sunday, Reid laid out all of the Chiefs’ current injuries, which included one player who will be out for the remainder of Kansas City’s 2023 season.
Said Reid: “We’ve got really the same people that were injured Clyde [Edwards-Helaire] was sick, so we kept him out. Nazeeh [Johnson] tore his ACL which you know, [Mike] Danna calf, [Jody] Fortson shoulder, Isaiah Moore he’s going to need surgery. And then KT [Kadarius Toney] is making progress.
“That’s really it, nothing happened today. Good work today it’s the longest practice, so today was a two-hour and 25-minute practice, guys pounded through it they did a good job of competing and finishing strong. Back and forth which is good, offense and defense. Special teams got good work in today.”
Nazeeh Johnson’s loss was a disappointing development after Saturday’s practice, and Kansas City will have to rely on one of their young defenders to step up in his absence moving forward.
