There's no official timeline for Josh Simmons' return from a back injury. The Kansas City Chiefs' left tackle has missed the first four games of the season after coming down with the ailment on August 18, and reports aren't all that hopeful for his immediate availability after the team's bye in Week 5. That said, as he does come back to the field, the question of what happens to his replacement, Kahlil Benson, is interesting.

Kansas City Chiefs fans entered the bye week anxiously awaiting news about what the Chiefs would do at wide receiver after both Tyquan Thornton and Rashee Rice suffered injuries in their Week 4 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Would they bring back Tyreek Hill? Would they trade for a big name? Speculation was running wild for days. Then news broke on Saturday that the Arizona Cardinals had agreed to trade Marvin Harrison Jr., but they weren't releasing his new team's name yet.

The Kansas City Chiefs are in need of an outside receiver, and Marvin Harrison Jr.'s time with the Arizona Cardinals was clearly coming to an end — it was a match made in football heaven, at least on the surface. But when the Cardinals' expected price of a second-round pick and more was revealed, the storybook pairing started to look like an obvious mistake.

The Kansas City Chiefs have been off to a red-hot start to the season, going 4-0 heading into the bye week and looking like they could be the best team in football. The offense is humming behind superstar running back Kenneth Walker and a resurgent Patrick Mahomes. Kansas City looks to refresh its roster during the bye and keep winning through the next 13 games. Despite a great start to the season, the Chiefs' roster still has room for improvement.

It's been a very, very surprising year so far for the Kansas City Chiefs. Maybe it shouldn't be all that surprising to see a team with such sustained success in the last decade (or more) continue to win, but after last year's six-win debacle, nothing was certain. But beyond the team's success, plenty of players have shocked fans with their performances thus far.

The Kansas City Chiefs have reached their bye week. It’s a chance for wide receivers to rehab their hamstrings, for left tackles to rest their backs and for Chiefs fans to sit back, relax, and watch a carefree weekend of football. But with Kansas City out of action, which teams should Chiefs Kingdom be rooting for? Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered.

The Kansas City Chiefs earned an exciting victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. A main difference in the outcome was the explosive plays that K.C. hit on. If that exact game had played out in the prior two seasons, perhaps the Chiefs would have left Vegas with a frustrating loss. Xavier Worthy was an underrated part of the Chiefs' explosive plays, looking back on his day. Worthy's performance included four catches for 70 yards. More importantly, three of his four grabs went for at least 10 yards.

The word of the day for the Kansas City Chiefs front office is "familiarity." The Chiefs have serious needs at wide receiver as they survey options during their Week 5 bye. While the lofty perch of being 4-0 feels good, WR concerns cast a cloud over the upcoming stretch of opponents since the Chiefs lost both Rashee Rice and Tyquan Thornton to injuries during their victory over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 4.

While it's true that the Kansas City Chiefs are deeper than they've been in years along the defensive interior early in '26, it's often forgotten that one of their primary investments up front is still missing in action. Now that Week 4 has officially passed, it's possible that reinforcements are on the way with the looming return of Omarr Norman-Lott.

"Do you think God stays in heaven because he, too, lives in fear of what he's created?" -Romero, Spy Kids 2 I believe this is how some people feel when they are about to face the 2026 Chiefs offense, which has been given new life thanks to Kenneth Walker.
