Chiefs' Josh Simmons: Won't play vs. Las Vegas
Simmons (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Raiders.
The second-year offensive lineman is set to miss each of the first four games of the regular season due to a bulging disc in his back, which has also prevented him from practicing. The Chiefs are on bye Week 5, so Simmons' next chance to make his 2026 debut is Week 6 against the Chargers on Sunday, Oct. 18. Kahlih Benson will continue to start at left tackle in Simmons' absence.
