What Happened to Wanya Morris? NFL Injury Update

As a gamer with a deep interest in sports and a soft spot for underdog stories, I can’t help but feel a twinge of empathy for Wanya Morris, the promising offensive tackle for the Kansas City Chiefs. Having had my fair share of setbacks in my gaming career (a few too many game overs, if we’re being honest), I know all too well the frustration that comes with being sidelined when you’re on a roll.


Wanya Morris is a current football player for the Kansas City Chiefs in the National Football League (NFL). He was selected as the #64 offensive tackle by the team after being chosen in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft. In their last preseason game, he unfortunately suffered an injury that forced him to leave the game prematurely.

Let’s take a look at the details of Wanya Morris’ injury and when he might return to play.

How did Wanya Morris get injured while playing football?

During a failed fourth-down play against the Chicago Bears, Wanya Morris suffered an injury to his knee.

On Thursday, during the Chiefs’ last preseason match, Morris had to quit the game in the first quarter due to a knee injury. He managed to walk to the locker room without assistance but didn’t go back onto the field. The specific details about the injury weren’t shared right away, and Chukwuebuka Godrick took his place on the field instead.

According to reports, Morris appeared to be clutching his leg as he left the playing field. Later, he sought medical treatment at the fieldside training facility. Earlier, he had sustained a shoulder injury and a knee bone bruise. It remains undetermined if Thursday’s injury involved the same limb.

When will Wanya Morris return to play with the Kansas City Chiefs?

There is no official statement yet about when Wanya Morris will return to play.

Despite exiting the field unattended, it’s yet to be determined when Morris might rejoin the team. The Chiefs’ first regular season match is scheduled for September 5, leaving just two weeks for Morris to recuperate, rest, and get back into peak shape before making a comeback.

Should Morris need a longer healing phase, the Kansas City Chiefs could potentially bring in Donovan Smith as a replacement. Throughout the majority of the 2023-24 season’s games, Smith had been the starting player, but Morris stepped in when Smith got hurt.
