The Kansas City Chiefs will be without an important piece of their offensive line, and could be missing their best defensive player for their Christmas Day matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Kansas City ruled out left tackle D.

Head coach Andy Reid hasn’t yet revealed his plan for the Chiefs’ front-five, but veteran guard Joe Thuney started in Humphries’ place when Kansas City faced the Houston Texans in Week 16. Tackles Wanya Morris and Kingsley Suamataia will be available to replace Humphries if Thuney returns to his spot as a starting guard.

As the Kansas City Chiefs continue to gear up for Week 16's game against the Texans, there's a fresh update on D.J. Humphries and Chamarri Conner.

The Chiefs are one of four teams making a quick turnaround from playing on Saturday to playing on Wednesday, so they issued an injury report on Sunday.

Humphries suffered a hamstring injury last week while facing the Los Angeles Chargers. His condition kept him from being a full participant in practice this week, and Humphries was officially listed as doubtful to play against Cleveland before being downgraded to out on Saturday.

The Kansas City Chiefs can’t seem to avoid the injury bug in 2024. With a glaring need at left tackle, the club was excited to welcome veteran left tackle D.J. Humphries to the lineup this past Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Ahead of Wednesday's Christmas outing against the Steelers, the KC Chiefs have some fresh injury news on Chris Jones, Jawaan Taylor, D.J. Humphries and others.
