Chiefs WR Kadarius Toney suffers hamstring injury vs. Chargers

The Kansas City Chiefs were already thin at receiver heading into this game and things are now worse.

Late in the second quarter, Chiefs trade acquisition Kadarius Toney suffered a hamstring injury. There was no stoppage for the injury, so it’s hard to tell what exactly happened to Toney, but the team has ruled him questionable to return.

Availability was one of the big knocks on Toney when the Chiefs traded for him. He missed six weeks this season already due to a hamstring injury when he was with the New York Giants. Hopefully, this is only a minor injury and the team is just exercising some caution.

With Toney sidelined, the Chiefs are now down to just five receivers on the 53-man roster. Those players are Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Justin Watson, Skyy Moore, Cornell Powell and Marcus Kemp. Those last two are practice squad elevations this week. It’s hardly an ideal situation, especially with Kansas City down seven points at halftime.
