Chris Roland-Wallace: Everything you need to know

The Chiefs placed Roland-Wallace (back) on injured reserve Saturday. Roland-Wallace had already sat out the team's Week 13 loss to Dallas and will now be forced to miss an additional four weeks. Mike Edwards, who was signed to the active roster from the practice squad in a corresponding transaction, should step in as the team's starting slot cornerback going forward with Roland-Wallace sidelined.

Roland-Wallace (back) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday night's matchup against the Texans, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports. Roland-Wallace was sidelined for Kansas City's Week 13 loss to the Cowboys and didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, so it's no surprise that he'll miss Sunday's contest. Expect Nohl Williams to operate as the Chiefs' top slot corner while Roland-Wallace remains out Week 14.

Roland-Wallace (back) won't practice Wednesday, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports. The 24-year-old didn't play in the Chiefs' Week 13 loss to the Cowboys, and his DNP on Wednesday suggests he's still dealing with a back injury. Roland-Wallace likely needs to upgrade to at least limited practice Thursday or Friday in order to suit up for the Week 14 matchup against the Texans on Sunday night.
