The Kansas City Chiefs announced the injury status for offensive lineman Jaylon Moore hours before the game against the Denver Broncos.
Reports say the Chiefs are exploring Kansas for a new stadium near the Speedway. Negotiations underway. What it means for the region.
The easy answer is Denver has improved greatly under head coach Sean Payton, who took over in 2023 and reached the playoffs in his second year there. Measures of growth under the former longtime Saints coach include standing up to the Chiefs and keeping them out of end zone at Empower Field at Mile High, site of Sunday’s game, since 2022.
Running back Isiah Pacheco burst onto the scene in his rookie year and rejuvenated a Chiefs ground game that had been almost nonexistent since Kareem Hunt was reprimanded by the league and exiled from the team for kicking a woman back in 2018.

While 1587 Prime — inside the Loews Hotel at 1500 Baltimore Ave. — has been the subject of much excitement and discussion since its debut, the swanky spot isn’t the first restaurant opened by Chiefs players. Throughout the years, several players have ventured into the restaurant world during or after their time on the field.
