Andy Reid Says Chiefs DL Emmanuel Ogbah Suffered a Torn Pec Against the Titans
It was a bad afternoon for the Kansas City Chiefs. Their offensive line suffered a slew of injuries before they lost on a last-second touchdown drive after botching a field goal attempt that would've made it an eight-point game.
And it got worse after the game when head coach Andy Reid announced defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah suffered a torn pec.
This is extremely unfortunate for the Chiefs, as the injury will likely sideline him for the rest of the year. Houston Texans pass rusher J.J. Watt suffered the same injury and had to undergo season-ending surgery.
This is an especially huge blow for the Chiefs because they need every advantage they can get as they push for the playoffs. Ogbah was their best pass rusher, leading the team with 5.5 sacks.
Today's game showed that even with Mahomes' magic on their side, football is still a team sport. Both sides of the football and special teams all must be productive to win football games.
After this loss, the Chiefs don't have much room for error in the AFC West with the Raiders picking up steam. However, despite the loss of Ogbah, the Chiefs have a deep defensive line with the likes of Chris Jones, Alex Okafor, Frank Clark, and Tanoh Kpassagnon ready to compensate for his loss.
