The 2020 third-rounder opted out of his rookie season to COVID and then started nine games last season before suffering a torn patellar tendon in his knee in Week 17. He's still rehabbing that and will be out until at least Week 5. Andrew Wylie will open the season as the Chiefs' starting right tackle.

It is not a surprising diagnosis after Niang had to be carted off the field early in the game. Niang was only playing because starting LT Orlando Brown suffered a calf injury in pre-game warmups. No longer the No. 1 seed following a disappointing loss, the Chiefs once again have questions along the offensive line. 

Niang was filling in for Orlando Brown, who suffered a calf injury during pre-game warmups. With both out, the Chiefs have moved starting LG Joe Thuney out to tackle. 

There are no surprises on Kansas City's injury report. Niang only played 20% of snaps last week before exiting and was expected to miss tonight's game. Andrew Wylie is listed as the Chiefs' second-string right tackle.
