Omarr Norman-Lott: Everything you need to know

The Chiefs placed Norman-Lott (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday. Norman-Lott tore his ACL during the Chiefs' Week 7 win over the Raiders on Sunday. The injury will sideline the rookie second-rounder for the rest of the 2025 season, and he'll turn his attention toward his recovery and to be ready for the start of training camp in July of 2026. He'll end his first NFL regular season with five tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks. Jerry Tillery should see more rotational snaps at defensive tackle in Norman-Lott's absence.

Norman-Lott sustained a season-ending torn ACL in his right knee during Sunday's 31-0 win over the Raiders, Nate Taylor of ESPN.com reports. Norman-Lott exited the Chiefs' Week 7 win in the third quarter due to a knee injury, which has now been revealed to be a torn ACL. The rookie defensive tackle from Tennessee had played just 70 defensive snaps through his first five NFL games, recording five total tackles, including 1.0 sacks. Now that he's expected to miss the remainder of Kansas City's 2025 campaign, expect Jerry Tillery to operate as the team's top reserve interior defensive lineman.

Norman-Lott (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Raiders. Norman-Lott had to be helped off the field late in the third quarter due to a knee injury. He was taken back to the locker room to have his knee injury evaluated, and the results of those tests will be worth closely monitoring given the numerous injuries that have plagued the Chiefs' offensive line this season.
