The injury bug continues to bite the Chiefs.
Outside linebacker Dee Ford won’t play in Monday’s game against Washington at Arrowhead Stadium, Andy Reid announced on Saturday.
Ford has a back injury. So does offensive tackle Eric Fisher, who didn’t practice on Saturday. But Reid said Fisher wasn’t ruled out for Monday.
“He’s had back spasms,” Reid said. “We held him out, but he’s getting better. We’ll just see as we get close to game time.”
Center Mitch Morse, who missed last week’s game against the Chargers, also will miss Monday’s game.
Ford’s absence means the Chiefs have one reserve listed at outside linebacker, rookie Tanoh Kpassagnon, a second-round draft pick.
