Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown has been officially ruled out for the regular-season opener against the Baltimore Ravens due to a shoulder injury. Coach Andy Reid confirmed that Brown has not practiced since suffering a left sternoclavicular dislocation on August 10. Despite his absence, Reid noted that Brown's recovery has been encouraging, and there is potential for him to return as early as Week 2 against the Bengals.

• Marquise Brown's absence opens up opportunities for other receivers on the Chiefs.
• Rookie Xavier Worthy could see increased targets in Brown's absence.
