Source: Chiefs lose guard Parker Ehinger for season
The Chiefs have lost guard Parker Ehinger for the season because of a torn anterior cruciate ligament, a source confirmed to The Star on Tuesday.
Ehinger left the Chiefs’ 30-14 win over the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday because of what coach Andy Reid called a knee sprain. Ehinger was spotted leaving the locker on crutches with a large brace on his knee.
Ehinger, a fourth-round pick this year who made four starts and appeared in five games, was replaced by Zach Fulton. Fulton has started 25 games in his three-year career, including three this season.
