Kansas City Chiefs’ first injury report for Miami Dolphins gives the team a few new injuries to navigate in Week 3 road game
The Kansas City Chiefs released their first injury report for Week 3 vs. the Miami Dolphins. It includes a few new injuries for the team to navigate in their first road match.
The Kansas City Chiefs have released their first injury report ahead of Week 3 against the Miami Dolphins.
The team remains relatively healthy heading into Week 3, but a few new injuries stem from the Week 2 win over the Indianapolis Colts. The status of LT Josh Simmons and SS Chamarri Conner still remains in question for Week 3 after the latest updates from Andy Reid. The good news is that everyone seems to be trending in the right direction, including No. 6 overall pick Mansoor Delane.
Here’s a quick breakdown of the first Week 3 injury reports. Keep in mind that clubs can add to the injury report through Week 3’s kickoff on Sunday. They will release game status designations on Friday, Sept. 25.
Kansas City Chiefs’ Wednesday injury report for Week 3
| Player | Injury | Wed./Thu./Fri. |
|---|---|---|
| LT Josh Simmons | Back | DNP/ |
| DE Felix Anudike-Uzomah | Quad | LP/ |
| DB Chamarri Conner | Knee | LP/ |
| CB L’Jarius Sneed | Knee | LP/ |
| DT Chris Jones | Calf | LP/ |
| LB Jeff Bassa | Shouldeer | FP/ |
| WR Rashee Rice | Knee | FP/ |
| CB L’Jarius Sneed | Knee | FP/ |
| DB Jaden Hicks | Biceps | FP/ |
| QB Patrick Mahomes | Knee | FP/ |
| LB Jack Cochrane | Calf | FP/ |
| CB Mansoor Delane | Shoulder | FP/ |
KEY: DNP = Did not participate | LP = Limited participation | FP = Full participation | NIR = Not injury related
Observations
- The limited practice status for Sneed and Jones amounts to load management and veteran rest.
- Cochrane, Hicks, Bassa, and Anudike-Uzomah are the only players with “new” injuries. Only one of those appears to be substantial enough to require limitations at practice.
- If Anudike-Uzomah can’t go in Week 3, the Chiefs might use DE Jack Pyburn for the first time since acquiring him on the waiver wire at 53-man roster cuts. They could also elevate DE Emmanuel Ogbah from the practice squad for the game against his former team (Miami).
Miami Dolphins’ Wednesday injury report for Week 2
| Player | Injury | Wed./Thu./Fri. |
|---|---|---|
| EDGE Rob Beal Jr. | Hamstring | DNP/ |

| WR Chris Bell | Knee | LP/ |
| CB JuJu Brents | Knee | LP/ |
| WR Ryan Miller | Hip / Back | LP/ |
| WR Jaylen Wright | Stinger / Foot | LP/ |
| CB Chris Johnson | Shoulder | FP/ |
| EDGE Chop Robinson | Concussion | FP/ |
| TE Seydou Traore | Thumb | FP/ |
KEY: DNP = Did not participate | LP = Limited participation | FP = Full participation | NIR = Not injury related
Observations
- The good news for the Dolphins: DE Chop Robinson logged a full practice after missing Week 2.
- The bad news for the Dolphins: rookie WR Chris Bell is back on the injury report with a knee injury. Rookie WR Caleb Douglas, who left Week 2’s game with an ankle injury, did not participate.
