Some notes
- Left tackle Josh Simmons missed all three of this week’s practices. He also missed Sunday night’s game against the Detroit Lions for unexplained personal reasons. The official designation for his absence continues to be not injury related – personal, so we assume it is the same issue that kept him out of Sunday’s game.
- The Chiefs continue to be tight-lipped (and frankly, confusing) about the situation. In his opening remarks to reporters on Friday, head coach Andy Reid said that Simmons was “still excused with a family situation.” Then asked if he was confirming Simmons is absent for a family matter, Reid replied, “Well, personal.” He then denied having an “understanding” of a return timeline for the rookie left tackle.
- Every other Kansas City player on the injury report was also a full participant in Friday’s practice — meaning that except for Simmons, every player on the roster is good to go for Sunday’s game.
