Chiefs DB depth chart
Behind Johnson is the second-string Keith Taylor Jr. The team could also pull left cornerback Trent McDuffie’s backup, Joshua Williams, over to the right side if needed. This loss of Johnson in the game puts the Chiefs in a tough spot with that position, as Jaylen Watson is already on injured reserve.
