THE Kansas City Chiefs have lost a former first round NFL Draft pick for the season in a massive setback.
Head coach Andy Reid announced the devastating blow just weeks before the new campaign.
Defensive end Felix Anudike-Uzomah was selected in the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft.
He was taken No. 31 overall out of Kansas State, where he was a first-team All-American.
The 23-year-old helped the Chiefs win Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Anudike-Uzomah suffered an injury in a preseason game against the Seattle Seahawks last Friday.
The 23-year-old was helped from the field by athletic trainers
