Mecole Hardman Jr.

Mecole Hardman Jr.

WR / Kansas City Chiefs
Mecole Hardman (thumb) placed on Chiefs' injured reserve

What it means:

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman has been placed on injured reserve Saturday. Hardman will now miss at least the next four games due to a sprained thumb. He'll be eligible to return to the field in Week 16 against Las Vegas - coincidentally who Kansas City will face here in Week 12. In 9 games this season with the Jets and Chiefs, Hardman has 9 catches on 13 targets for 47 yards.
numberFire
Kadarius Toney

Kadarius Toney

WR / Kansas City Chiefs
Kadarius Toney (ankle, hip) ruled out for Chiefs in Week 12

What it means:

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney will not play Sunday in the team's Week 12 game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Toney is a late add to the injury report and has been ruled out of action due to injuries to both his ankle and his hip. In 10 games this season, Toney has 22 catches on 30 targets for 139 yards and a touchdown.
numberFire
Jerick McKinnon

Jerick McKinnon

RB / Kansas City Chiefs
Kansas City's Jerick McKinnon (groin) out in Week 12

What it means:

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon (groin) will not play in Week 12's game versus the Las Vegas Raiders. After a limited week of practice with a groin injury, McKinnon will not be available. Expect Clyde Edwards-Helaire to see more touches against a Las Vegas defense ranked 27th in fantasy points allowed per game to running backs.

Mecole Hardman Jr.

Mecole Hardman Jr.

WR / Kansas City Chiefs
Chiefs' Mecole Hardman (thumb) questionable to return in Week 11

What it means:

The Kansas City Chiefs announced that wide receiver Mecole Hardman (thumb) is questionable to return to the team's Week 11 game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Hardman suffered an apparent thumb injury in the first quarter of Monday's game and is questionable to return. His absence has pushed Skyy Moore back into kick return duties and could lead to additional snaps for Moore and Kadarius Toney on offense. Hardman caught his lone target so far in Week 11 for 5 yards.
numberFire
Jerick McKinnon

Jerick McKinnon

RB / Kansas City Chiefs
Chiefs' Jerick McKinnon (groin) available for Week 9

What it means:

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon (groin) is available for Week 9's game against the Miami Dolphins. McKinnon was upgraded to a full participant at practice on Friday and will not carry an injury designation into Sunday's showdown with Miami. Clyde Edwards-Helaire (illness) has been ruled out. McKinnon's Week 9 projection includes 13.5 rushing yards, 23.7 receiving yards, 0.24 total touchdowns, and 6.5 FanDuel points. His salary is $4,800.

Clyde Edwards-Helaire

Clyde Edwards-Helaire

RB / Kansas City Chiefs
Chiefs' Clyde Edwards-Helaire (illness) out for Week 9

What it means:

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (illness) has been ruled out of Week 9's game against the Miami Dolphins. Edwards-Helaire is dealing with an illness and will not travel with the team to Germany. Edwards-Helaire only handled one touch in last week's loss to the Denver Broncos. Look for Isiah Pacheco to lead the Chiefs' backfield once again in Week 9. Pacheco's Week 9 projection includes 59.0 rushing yards, 16.5 receiving yards, 0.52 total touchdowns, and 11.7 FanDuel points. His salary is $6,600.
