Chiefs lose another receiver in Mecole Hardman
With Hardman sidelined, the Chiefs are down to four healthy wideouts against Tampa Bay: DeAndre Hopkins, Xavier Worthy, Justin Watson and Justyn Ross. The latter is making his season debut.
Hardman came into the game with six receptions for 58 yards.
Hardman going down is the last thing the Chiefs needed, as the injuries to its receiver core continue to pile up. Kansas City is without Rashee Rice and Hollywood Brown for the season.
