The Kansas City Chiefs have released their final injury report ahead of the season opener against the Denver Broncos on “Monday Night Football.”

As expected, starting LT Josh Simmons and starting SS Chamarri Conner have been ruled out due to their respective back and knee injuries. They won’t suit up on Monday night, paving the way for players like Kahlil Benson and Jaden Hicks to get opportunities. What else did we learn about the Chiefs from the final injury report?

Here’s a quick breakdown, complete with game status designations. Keep in mind that clubs can make additions to the injury report all the way up to Week 1’s kickoff on Monday.
