Hardman emerged from the Chiefs' Week 11 loss to the Eagles with the injury and landed on injured reserve Saturday. He'll thus miss at least four games as a result, meaning his next chance for game action is Monday, Dec. 25 against the Raiders. Hardman's recovery timetable is unknown, though, so it's unclear if he'll be able to get healthy in four weeks.

Hardman emerged from the Chiefs' Week 11 loss to the Eagles with the injury and landed on injured reserve Saturday. He'll thus miss at least four games as a result, meaning his next chance for game action is Monday, Dec. 25 against the Raiders. Hardman's recovery timetable is unknown, though, so it's unclear if he'll be able to get healthy in four weeks.
Per Adam Teicher of ESPN.com, Hardman is dealing with a sprained right thumb that may sideline him beyond this weekend. Since returning to the Chiefs in a trade with the Jets last month, Hardman has caught eight of his 10 targets for 41 yards, so his looming absence is of more import to his team's wideout depth than it is to fantasy managers.
Hardman emerged from Monday's 21-17 loss to the Eagles with a sprained thumb. The speedster will have two more opportunities to resume practicing in preparation for Sunday's game against the Raiders. Richie James (knee) is the top candidate to return punts and kickoffs if Hardman's unable to occupy that role come Sunday.
