The Chiefs took a big hit on Sunday when rookie running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire suffered a hip and ankle injury in their 32–29 win over the Saints.
In the fourth quarter, Edwards-Helaire was bent backward while being tackled after a four-yard run. His left leg was caught under him as he hit the ground and landed awkwardly, and trainers helped him off the field while he could not put weight on his leg.
After the game, coach Andy Reid said the initial X-rays on Edwards-Helaire's hip and ankle came back negative but the team will learn more after he undergoes an MRI.
