Chiefs' Nick Bolton: Suffers elbow injury

Bolton left Wednesday's practice early with an elbow issue, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

The severity of Bolton's injury is currently unknown, but expect Kansas City to be cautious with the 24-year-old's recovery, as he's such an integral part of the team's defensive success. Once Bolton moves past this elbow issue, he'll likely remain the Chiefs' top inside linebacker.
