Morris (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Morris aggravated a bone bruise in his right knee in Sunday's win over the Broncos; however, Wednesday's full practice suggests that he's already moved past the issue. With the second-year pro back at full health, he's expected to protect Patrick Mahomes' blindside in Kansas City's Week 11 matchup against the Bills.
Head coach Andy Reid stated Wednesday that Morris aggravated a bone bruise in his right knee during Sunday's win against the Broncos, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports. Morris has dealt with this injury throughout the season but has yet to miss a game due to it. It's unclear how in danger he is of missing Sunday's game against the Bills, but more clarity should be available when the team releases its first injury report this week.
Morris suffered a knee injury in Sunday's Week 10 game against Denver and has been deemed questionable to return, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports. Morris was hurt early in the second quarter and had to hobble to the locker room, per Nate Taylor of The Athletic. Morris was replaced at left tackle by rookie Kingsley Suamataia.
Morris will start at left tackle against the Falcons on Sunday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Morris didn't win the job in camp, losing out to rookie Kingsley Suamataia. However, Suamataia struggled Week 2 and allowed Bengals pass rusher Trey Hendrickson to get the best of him, leading to him being benched during the game. The Chiefs will now turn to the second-year pro to protect Patrick Mahomes' blindside.
Morris (knee) was listed as a full participant at practice Monday and is not on the team's injury report for Thursday's game against the Ravens, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports. Morris tweaked his knee in the team's final preseason game, but he can be considered healthy, for now. A third-round selection in 2023, the Oklahoma product is expected to be Kansas City's primary reserve at offensive tackle in 2024.
Coach Andy Reid said Morris re-tweaked the same knee that had been bothering him previously in Thursday night's preseason loss to the Bears, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports. "He's going to be OK, give him some time here to rest up. He was doing a nice job when he had the opportunity there," said Reid. Morris had previously been diagnosed with a bone bruise in the knee two weeks ago. He's competing for swing tackle duties in Kansas City behind second-round rookie LT Kingsley Suamataia and RT Jawaan Taylor.
Morris has been ruled out for the rest of Thursday's preseason game against Chicago due to a right knee injury, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports. Morris sustained the injury on a failed fourth-down attempt in the first quarter. He was able to walk to the locker room under his own power, but he will not return Thursday. The 2023 third-round tackle is slated to serve in a backup role on the Chiefs' offensive line.
Morris has a bone bruise in his knee, Charles Goldman of AtoZSports.com reports. Morris hurt his knee in practice last Wednesday and remained sidelined Monday. The nature of his injury suggests that he probably isn't slated for an extended absence. Morris was listed as the No. 2 option at left tackle on the Chiefs' initial unofficial depth chart, per Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com.
Head coach Andy Reid stated Morris left practice with a shoulder injury Friday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports. The severity of Morris' injury has not been disclosed, but more information should be released soon. Offensive lineman Kingsley Suamataia will likely now get reps at left tackle in place of Morris.
