Chiefs' Toney undergoes knee surgery, uncertain for Week 1

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney underwent knee surgery after suffering an injury during training camp, head coach Andy Reid announced Tuesday, according to ESPN's Adam Teicher.

Reid added that "there's a chance" Toney could be back for Week 1.

Toney had a knee procedure in the offseason and reportedly aggravated the injury while fielding a punt during Sunday's practice, prompting him to leave early. Reid later said that the wideout tweaked his knee.

Toney began his NFL career with the New York Giants and spent just over a campaign in the Big Apple before the Giants traded him to the Chiefs midway through the 2022 campaign. The former first-round pick recorded 230 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns in seven regular-season appearances with Kansas City last year. He then scored a touchdown in Super Bowl LVII, helping K.C. edge the Philadelphia Eagles.

Toney is part of a crowded wide receiver depth chart in Kansas City. The Chiefs also roster Skyy Moore, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, and second-round rookie Rashee Rice, among others.
