The Chiefs and OT Wanya Morris agreed to explore trade options Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports. Morris has spent his entire three-year career in Kansas City but is looking to join a new team where he could see more playing time. The 25-year-old landed on the injured reserve last December with a knee injury but is now healthy again and participating in organized team activities.
The Chiefs placed Morris (knee) on injured reserve Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Morris sustained a season-ending knee injury during the Week 14 loss to the Texans, so his move to injured reserve comes as no surprise. Jaylon Moore and Esa Pole are expected to serve as the team's starting tackles for Sunday's matchup versus the Chargers, as Jawaan Taylor (triceps) is also out. Morris will shift his focus to getting healthy in time for the start of the 2026 campaign.
Morris (knee) is officially listed as out for Sunday's game versus the Chargers, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports. As expected, Morris will sit out in Week 15, and it's still believed he will miss the remainder of the season as he recovers from a bone bruise in his right knee. With him and Jawaan Taylor (triceps) sidelined, Jaylon Moore and Esa Pole project to start as Kansas City's left and right tackles, respectively.
