THE Kansas City Chiefs have lost another quarterback.
Backup quarterback Gardner Minshew exited Sunday’s game early with an apparent knee injury.
Minshew served as the backup to Patrick Mahomes and was thrust into starting duties after Mahomes tore his ACL.
However, it is now feared that Minshew now tore his ACL as well after getting testing.
According to NFL insider Adam Schefter, the Chiefs will go for additional tests to ensure it is an ACL tear.
It is an absolutely brutal injury for Kansas City, who is now down to their third string quarterback.
Chris Oludakun played the remainder of the game after Minshew’s injury, and will now likely start the final two games for the Chiefs.
It is possible that a new quarterback could be signed, but the season is already over for Kansas City.
They were eliminated from playoff contention with their loss to the Los Angeles Chargers last week.
Kansas City fell to 6-9 on the season with the loss to the Tennessee Titans today.
Fans are baffled by how many injuries the Chiefs are facing and shared their thoughts on social media.
“Prayers up for Minshew, really wanted him to get a fair chance to show he can still be a starter,” one fan said.
