Chiefs’ Offensive Line Suffers Fresh Blow as Wanya Morris Leaves on First Play vs. Texans

Kansas City entered Week 14 missing both starting tackles, leaving backups to protect Patrick Mahomes against Houston.

Overview

  • Wanya Morris exited on the first snap with an apparent leg injury that onlookers described as severe, and he could not put weight on the leg while leaving the field.
  • The Chiefs listed Morris as questionable to return with a knee injury, and the team has not announced a diagnosis.
  • Morris was starting in place of Josh Simmons, who was already unavailable at tackle.
  • Kansas City also began the game without starters Jawaan Taylor and Trey Smith, which pushed Mike Caliendo into the lineup.
  • The setback further thins the protection group at a time the offense can ill afford more losses up front.
