The Chiefs placed Adeniji (knee) on the reserve/injured list Monday, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports. Adeniji sustained his knee injury in the third quarter of Saturday's preseason game against the Packers, and it's severe enough for his season to be over. The 2020 sixth-round pick will shift his attention on rehab and recovery and aim to earn a roster spot in 2025.

The Chiefs placed Adeniji (knee) on the reserve/injured list Monday, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports. Adeniji sustained his knee injury in the third quarter of Saturday's preseason game against the Packers, and it's severe enough for his season to be over. The 2020 sixth-round pick will shift his attention on rehab and recovery and aim to earn a roster spot in 2025.
Adeniji hurt his right knee in Saturday's preseason loss to Green Bay and exited the stadium on crutches, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports. Adeniji was hurt on a pass play that resulted in a Tyler Huntley interception early in the third quarter. It was a rough day for Cleveland's offensive line, as fellow tackles James Hudson (ankle) and Germain Ifedi (hand) also departed with injuries. Adeniji has been competing for a depth role in the preseason, and his chance of making the 53-man roster could take a hit if he's unable to play in the Browns' final exhibition game next Saturday against Seattle.
