Andy Reid: I'll let you know when Josh Simmons is coming back

Kansas City has opened its campaign with three consecutive victories despite missing the team's primary blindside protector. Left tackle Josh Simmons remains out of action due to a back issue currently labeled on a week-to-week timeline.

It remains uncertain whether the lineman will resume workouts prior to the upcoming weekend contest against the undefeated Raiders.

During a media session on Monday, head coach Andy Reid declined to provide a specific target for the blocker's return. In the absence of the starter, undrafted newcomer Khalil Benson has stepped in to protect quarterback Patrick Mahomes, contributing to a strong start that includes yielding just four sacks across the opening trio of games.
