Chiefs rule Kenneth Walker out against Falcons
Summarised from 2 outlets · 3 reports · Updated 14 Nov, 17:31 · Archive
Kansas City Chiefs running back Kenneth Walker III has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons with a groin injury. Head coach Andy Reid said Walker "tweaked" the area and arrived at the training facility Friday morning with tightness. With Walker unavailable, rookie running back Emmett Johnson is expected to take on a larger role, with Reid saying Johnson "would take the bulk of the carries". Johnson scored his first rushing touchdown in the fourth quarter of last week's 35-12 win over the New York Jets.
The Chiefs also announced that offensive lineman Jaylon Moore and defensive lineman Peter Woods have been ruled out. Moore is dealing with an ankle injury and Woods with a neck injury, neither of whom practised during the week. Cornerback Mansoor Delane is questionable with a shoulder injury, though he participated fully in practice throughout the week. Running back Jaydn Ott is also questionable with a hamstring injury after limited practices Thursday and Friday.
