Chiefs Roster Battle Amid Injury Surge | Kansas City News

Chiefs’ final preseason game against Seattle sees key players sidelined, but it’s a breakout moment for rookie QB Garrett Nussmeier — stepping in for the concussed Chris Oladokun and potentially playing the full game. With multiple starters out due to injuries — including linebackers, defensive ends, and even running back Kenneth Walker III (minor swelling) — this is a chance for depth players to shine before roster cuts. Coach Reid praised Nussmeier’s poise and leadership under pressure, calling his reps invaluable. It’s a high-stakes finale as the Chiefs aim to close strong despite the setbacks.
