Tuesday’s unfortunate news from the Kansas City Chiefs’ training camp was more disappointing (and frustrating) than surprising: the team’s supremely talented (and projected No. 1 wide receiver) Kadarius Toney is once again injured for an extended time.
Although head coach Andy Reid said there is “a chance” Toney could be back on the field before the team kicks off the NFL season on Thursday, September 7 against the Detroit Lions, it’s probably not something we should rely upon. In fact, getting Toney back (and maintaining his health throughout the season) is likely to feel more like an unexpected treat.
