Chiefs HC Andy Reid Announces Season-Ending Injury for 3rd-Year Veteran.

After the Kansas City Chiefs’ win over the Houston Texans in Week 16, head coach Andy Reid shared updates on several injured players.

Reid announced that linebacker Jack Cochrane suffered a fractured ankle, defensive tackle Chris Jones suffered a strained calf, and starting right tackle Jawaan Taylor suffered a strained knee.

In the fourth quarter of Saturday’s Chiefs victory, defensive tackle Jones went down with the calf injury. Several minutes after making his way toward the sideline under his own power, Jones was listed as questionable to return to the game and the team confirmed that he suffered a calf injury.

Houston had one more possession after the series in which Jones was injured, but Jones did not return to the game.

A fractured ankle for Cochrane — who is primarily a special teamer for Kansas City — likely means his season is over. As for Jones and Taylor, they won’t have much time to recover, as Kansas City’s Week 17 game will be a matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day.

The two-time defending Super Bowl champions improved to 14-1 with the win over the Texans at Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday.

Against Houston, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes completed 28-of-41 pass attempts for 260 yards and one touchdown. He also ran the ball five times for 33 yards and a touchdown.

Mahomes’s leading receiver was rookie wideout Xavier Worthy, who had a season-high 11 targets and seven receptions for 65 yards and one touchdown. Veteran running back Kareem Hunt led Kansas City’s backfield with 11 rushes or 55 yards — 5.0 yards per carry — and one touchdown.

The Chiefs defense rose to the occasion against Houston. The unit allowed 311 yards of total offense, sacked QB C.J. Stroud two times, and also intercepted him twice.
