Roster Updates (Watts and LDT to IR, Zombo signed)
The Chiefs announced a couple of significant roster moves Tuesday afternoon, placing starting guard Laurent Duvernay-Tardif as well as reserve safety Armani Watts on injured reserve while signing veteran free agent outside linebacker Frank Zombo to the 53-man roster. The team also announced the movement of undrafted rookie linebacker Rob McCray to a designation of Practice Squad/Injured.
The move of Duvernay-Tardif to injured reserve doesn't come as a big surprise after he suffered a fractured fibula in Sunday's 30-14 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, but placing Watts on injured reserve was unexpected and another unneeded blow to a safety position already decimated by injury. Watts, who was a fourth-round pick of the Chiefs in the 2018 NFL Draft, left Sunday's win over the Jaguars with a groin injury. Both players will be eligible to return off of injured reserve in eight weeks, although the Chiefs are only allowed by league rules to bring two players per season off injured reserve, and one of them could be safety Daniel Sorensen, who has been out since the preseason following knee surgery. https://247sports.com/nfl/kansas-cit...mbo-123110807/ |

Oh wonderful, Zombo will add another dimension of shitty tackling and slow/unathletic linebacker play to Sutton's shitfest defense.
Damn it Veach. |

I wonder if they wait extra long now for Sorensen to be brought back.
Because if he’s ready say week 9, I don’t think you just bring him back on knowing that after LDT you will have used all of your IR to return designations. I think you have to save one up just in case someone more important gets hurt later. At least until there’s 8 weeks until the Super Bowl, where the IR would then be season ending without a doubt. |

I'm no fan of Zombo, but Veach doesn't exactly have a ton of choices for guys who can come in and play immediately.

Not a fan of Zombo coming back, I get he knows the system but all I can see is Mariota blocking him and making him look foolish

Raiders got DJ for $1.5M. Would like him here at that salary. Yeah, he's slowed down. But still a good coach on/off the field and above average in a backup roll.

Why can't the Chiefs quit Zombo??? Absolutely terrible.

I wonder if they knew all along Berry would be out awhile, but didn't wanna IR him or PUP him because they knew they had to use the return designation on Sorenson and then that only would allow them to get back one more player. It would have handicapped them pretty bad. They probably also thought they'd be good at safety, that depth has went to shit pretty fast.

What do they do with the open spot? Just about has to be a safety, right?

He looks like a ****ing Neanderthal. Like he got lip injections and then hit himself in the face with a shovel.
Frank Zombo is not ruggedly handsome. Frank Zombo is ruggedly bad at football.

Watts was never healthy in college. Not once. This should come as no surprise.
