Simmons (wrist) was placed on the injured reserve list Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Simmons was placed on IR after sustaining a dislocated and fractured wrist in Kansas City's Thanksgiving Day loss to the Cowboys. He'll now be forced to miss at least the team's next four games, and Wanya Morris will likely step in and start at left tackle.

Simmons underwent surgery on his wrist and will be placed on the injured reserve list, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 2025 first-round pick from Ohio State suffered a dislocated and fractured wrist in the Chiefs' Week 13 loss to the Cowboys. Simmons will be forced to miss Kansas City's next four games after his move to IR becomes official, making the Week 18 matchup against the Raiders his earliest possible return date. While he's sidelined for the foreseeable future, Wanya Morris is expected to start at left tackle.

Simmons suffered a dislocated and fractured wrist during the Chiefs' 31-28 loss to the Cowboys and is out indefinitely, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Chiefs were already without starting right guard Trey Smith (ankle) for Thursday's game, and Kansas City lost two more starting offensive linemen in Simmons and Jawaan Taylor (elbow) during the loss. Simmons will undergo an MRI on Friday and seek opinions on treatment options, but the rookie first-rounder is in jeopardy of being sidelined for the rest of the 2025 season. Wanya Morris and Jaylon Moore are the top candidates to start at left tackle during Simmons' extended absence.

Simmons (wrist) has been ruled out for the rest of Thursday's game against the Cowboys.
EDGE Analysis
Simmons appeared to sustain the injury late in the third quarter, which is severe enough for him to not return to Thursday's game. With Jawaan Taylor (elbow) also done for the day, the Chiefs are working with backup offensive tackles in Wanya Morris and Jaylon Moore.

Simmons (personal) was a full participant at practice Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Simmons missed the Chiefs' last three games before their Week 10 bye as he was dealing with a family matter, but now it seems like he may be on track to suit back up in Week 11. As of now, signs point towards him filling back in at left tackle come Sunday at Denver, but his status will be worth keeping an eye on as the week progresses.

Simmons (personal) is expected to rejoin the Chiefs "in a few weeks," Nate Taylor of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Simmons has been away from the team and hasn't played for the past two weeks while dealing with a "family situation." Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said Friday, "It's not a negative situation, so he's taking care of family. He's just taking care of business. That's the main thing. When you deal with this, that's what you do." Jaylon Moore should continue to start at left tackle for as long as Simmons remains out.

Simmons (personal) won't practice Thursday, Jesse Newell of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Simmons has missed Kansas City's last two games and hasn't been present at practice during that span as he deals with a personal issue. Head coach Andy Reid said Thursday that the team has remained in contact with the rookie left tackle, and there is a possibility that Simmons will return to the team at some point this season. Simmons remains away from the team and looks unlikely to be back prior to Monday's game against Washington.
