Two Chiefs Are Doubtful For Sunday Against the Bengals

by Joel Thorman on Dec 25, 2009 4:35 PM CST in 2009 Kansas City Chiefs Campaign

The Kansas City Chiefs will line up Sunday likely without the services of S DaJuan Morgan and LB Justin Rogers. Morgan suffered a chest injury in last weekend's game against the Cleveland Browns. He was seeing some playing time because the starter, Jon McGraw, was also battling a hand injury.

The Chiefs also signed S Reshard Langford today but he's not expected to be active on Sunday.

Other highlights from the injury report after the jump.

Two defensive ends questionable

This is getting interesting. The Chiefs listed Glenn Dorsey as questionable but he's practiced with the first team defense all week so his status looks good. Alex Magee has a hamstring injury that has kept him limited this week.

Wallace Gilberry and Tyson Jackson would see the vast majority of reps in the scenario that those two can't go. Also, Dion Gales could add depth.

Two offensive lineman questionable

And continuing with the theme of critical positions suffering from injuries, the Chiefs starting RT Ryan O'Callaghan and starting LG Brian Waters are questionable. O'Callaghan was a late addition last weekend and did not play on Sunday. Same deal with Waters who was ruled doubtful last week.

Flowers probable

Flowers played last week after landing on the injury report. Looks like he'll do the same this week.

McGraw looks ready

Jon McGraw missed time last weekend because of a hand injury. He dressed last week but had a big wrap on his hand during the game.

This highlights the importance of depth, if nothing else.

This time next year, let’s hope the depth guy is one of this year’s starters (or better) and not a backup to a backup!

Prediction for '09: Chiefs are looking like a .500 team, especially considering Denver's inattention to D-Line, Chokeland's disarray, and a San Diego team that looks like it's on the decline. With a weak schedule, Chiefs steal a few and win between 7 and 9 games, and if .500 or better, will contend for supremacy in a weak division.
