The Kansas City Chiefs will be without wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster for their upcoming game against the Denver Broncos due to a hamstring injury. Smith-Schuster has not practiced all week and currently has no timetable for his return. This absence will likely lead quarterback Patrick Mahomes to rely more heavily on tight end Travis Kelce and wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. Additionally, there is anticipation surrounding WR Xavier Worthy's potential bounce-back performance after a disappointing game against the Buccaneers.
- JuJu Smith-Schuster's absence opens up opportunities for other receivers.
- Patrick Mahomes will likely focus on Kelce and Hopkins in the passing game.
