While Mahomes is slated to be on the field Sunday, if a situation arises where he needs to leave the game, Kansas City will be dependent on backup quarterback Carson Wentz to lead Andy Reid’s offense.

DeAndre Hopkins injury update: Latest news on Chiefs WR’s status

#Chiefs WR DeAndre Hopkins is dealing with a knee injury. Here are the latest updates.

The Kansas City Chiefs listed veteran wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins on their Week 11 injury report on Wednesday. Hopkins has a knee injury, but it should not keep him out of his role as a starting wide receiver in the Chiefs’ offense when Kansas City faces off against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, November 17.

DeAndre Hopkins injury update

Hopkins was a full participant in Wednesday’s practice session despite his knee injury. This is the first time that he has been listed on the Chiefs’ injury report since Kansas City traded for him in October.

How long will DeAndre Hopkins be out?

Chiefs WR depth chart

Hopkins is expected to maintain his role as a starting wide receiver in Andy Reid’s offense. Rookie wideout Xavier Worthy will continue to see plenty of action regardless of Hopkins’ condition, and veteran pass-catcher JuJu Smith-Schuster may be able to get back on the field this week after returning to practice on Wednesday.

Additionally, the Chiefs can rely on Mecole Hardman and Justin Watson.

Will JuJu Smith-Schuster play this week? Injury updates for Chiefs WR

Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster is dealing with a hamstring injury. Here are the latest updates.

The Kansas City Chiefs have dealt with injuries in their receiving corps all season and will have to be without wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster when they face the Denver Broncos in Week 10.

Smith-Schuster, who has been dealing with a hamstring injury, was held out of every practice that Kansas City conducted this week and was officially ruled out for the AFC West showdown against Denver on Friday.

The extent of Smith-Schuster’s injury remains unclear, but if his recent absences from the Chiefs’ practices are any indication, his condition hasn’t improved substantially.

See Kansas City’s full Week 10 injury report, which was posted by Chiefs Senior Team Reporter Matt McMullen on Twitter:

 

Smith-Schuster has missed Kansas City’s last two games against the Las Vegas Raiders and Tampa Bay Buccaneers after leaving the Chiefs’ Super Bowl LVII rematch with the San Francisco 49ers in Week 7.

Stay tuned to see how Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid decide to compensate for Smith-Schuster’s continued absence.

Will Kareem Hunt play this week? Injury updates for Chiefs RB

#Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt is dealing with a quad injury. Here are the latest updates.

The Kansas City Chiefs have relied on veteran running back Kareem Hunt to lead their outstanding rushing attack while quarterback Patrick Mahomes has struggled to find his footing early in the 2024 season.

Hunt’s outsized impact on Kansas City’s offensive production has been a crucial aspect of the Chiefs’ perfect start to their championship defense campaign, but a quad injury threatened to limit his role against the Denver Broncos in Week 10.

On Wednesday, Kansas City listed Hunt as a limited participant in the Chiefs’ practice session due to a quad injury.

See Kansas City’s full injury report below, which was posted to Twitter by Chiefs Senior Team Reporter Matt McMullen:

 

It seemed that Hunt may have dealing with a serious issue, but he was upgraded to full participation during the Chiefs’ drills on Thursday and Friday, which should indicate that he will be available for Kansas City’s AFC West showdown against the Broncos.

If Hunt needs to miss time, expect rookie running back Carson Steele to take on a bigger role in Andy Reid’s offense.

The Kansas City Chiefs’ defense needs every man it can get for Sunday’s Super Bowl LVIII rematch against the San Francisco 49ers. Defensive lineman Derrick Nnadi was listed with a triceps injury on the defending champions’ final injury report on Friday, but is expected to be available for the high-stakes Week 7 tilt.

Derrick Nnadi is expected to start as the right defensive tackle this Sunday. If something changes and he isn’t able to play, Tershawn Wharton and Mike Pennel will be available to take Nnadi’s place next to Chris Jones.

Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman is dealing with a knee injury. Here are the latest updates.

The Kansas City Chiefs’ offense will need to be firing on all cylinders against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 7.

Mecole Hardman has been dealing with a knee injury that did not limit his participation at practices this week. He is expected to be available to play against the 49ers in Week 7.

How long will Mecole Hardman be out?

It is unclear if Hardman will be on the injury report again next week after being a full participant in all of the Chiefs’ practices after their bye.

Chiefs WR depth chart

Hardman’s contributions could prove to be crucial against San Francisco given the Chiefs’ diminished depth at the receiver position. Veteran wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster is listed as questionable, so Hardman could be called into a key role in Week 7.

Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire is dealing with an illness. Here are the latest updates.

The Kansas City Chiefs need all the help they can get to remain undefeated against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. Ideally, running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire will be returning after being absent for the Chiefs’ first 5 games this season.

Edwards-Helaire was activated from the reserve/non-football illness list Tuesday after being placed on the NFL list in the preseason and missing Kansas City’s season leading up to their Week 6 bye.

He participated in the Chiefs’ practice session on Friday and should be available for Sunday’s Super Bowl LVIII re-match against the 49ers.

How long will Clyde Edwards-Helaire be out?

It is unclear if Edwards-Helaire will come off the injury report next week, but he wasn’t limited during Kansas City’s practices this week, so he will be available to play in Week 7.

Chiefs RB depth chart

Though Edwards-Helaire is expected to be available, he could still be designated as inactive for the game if Andy Reid decides to utilize the other running backs at his disposal.

It is unclear if Danna will miss next week’s Sunday afternoon matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders, but he will officially miss Week 7.
