Chiefs rookie LT Josh Simmons suffers dislocated, fractured wrist in Thanksgiving loss to Cowboys

Kansas City Chiefs rookie left tackle Josh Simmons is out indefinitely after suffering a dislocated and fractured wrist during the team's Thanksgiving loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Simmons, a first-round draft pick in 2025, had previously missed four games this season due to a personal matter and has started in eight games. NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported that Simmons was seen leaving the stadium in a cast and will undergo an MRI to determine treatment options.

In the same game, right tackle Jawaan Taylor suffered an elbow injury, and safety Bryan Cook exited with an ankle injury. The Chiefs will rely on offensive linemen Jaylon Moore and Wanya Morris to cover the potential absences of Simmons and Taylor. The Chiefs, currently 6-6, aim to recover as they host the Houston Texans (6-5) in Week 14 on Sunday Night Football.
