Sports2 sources1 country🔦 Under-reported49m ago
The Kansas City Chiefs have placed left tackle Josh Simmons on injured reserve due to a bulging disc in his lower back. The roster move further delays Simmons's return to the field, rendering him ineligible to return until Week 11 at the earliest.
Simmons had been working to recover from the back injury, but the team determined he was not yet ready to play. The placement on injured reserve ensures the Chiefs will be without their starting left tackle for the upcoming stretch of games as he continues his rehabilitation.
