Chiefs WR Kadarius Toney won't play vs. Broncos

Kansas City Chiefs WR Kadarius Toney will miss his third consecutive game due to a hamstring injury after the team officially downgraded Toney to out on Saturday.
Andy Reid gave a glimmer of hope on Friday, saying that Toney was on the border of playing or not playing against the Denver Broncos. The team ruled him questionable in the final injury report after three limited practice sessions this week. It appears they'll be playing things on the safe side with the trade acquisition.
This hamstring injury first popped up earlier this season when Toney was with the New York Giants. Toney felt it tightening up on him again in Week 11 against the Los Angeles Chargers and the team chose to shut him down instead of risking further injury.
Getting Toney right for the impending playoff run is more important than having him back for this week. Though, there should at least be some level of urgency to get him back out there and further ingratiated into the offense.
