Mandatory Credit: Denny Medley-Imagn Images Chiefs rookie offensive tackle Josh Simmons will practice this week for the first time since missing the past four games for personal reasons, Kansas City head coach Andy Reid told reporters Monday.
Simmons, 22, had been dealing with a family matter, according to Reid, and missed games against the Detroit Lions, Las Vegas Raiders, Washington Commanders and Buffalo Bills. Kansas City is 5-4 overall and went 3-1 without Simmons.
The Chiefs played Jaylon Moore at left tackle with Simmons out.
"I think what we'll do is see where we're at here," Reid said Monday of a timeline for Simmons' return to game play. "We know we've got a good player in there now and we know what Josh is capable of and all that. So, we'll just see where we're at when they get back."
A first-round draft pick out of Ohio State, Simmons started the first five games of the season as the Chiefs went 2-3.
Kansas City is coming off its bye week and will next see action on the road against the Denver Broncos on Sunday.
