News

  • Placed on injured reserve

    Okafor (pectoral) officially landed on injured reserve Monday, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.

    Analysis: It was already announced that Okafor would miss the remainder of the season after tearing his pectoral muscle in Sunday's win over the Broncos, so this move comes as no surprise. The 28-year-old accumulated 22 tackles and five sacks this season, but he'll now set his sights on his recovery for 2020.

  • Done for season

    An MRI confirmed Okafor has a torn pectoral muscle and will miss the rest of the season, Josina Anderson of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Okafor left Sunday's win over the Broncos with this issue and didn't return. He's the second defensive lineman to suffer this injury, and he'll join Emmanuel Ogbah (pectoral) on IR soon. The 28-year-old Okafor finished the year with 22 tackles and five sacks. In Okafor's stead, Tanoh Kpassagnon is expected to slot into a starting role opposite Frank Clark.

  • Awaiting MRI to confirm torn pec

    Okafor is feared to have suffered a torn pectoral muscle during Sunday's win over the Broncos, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Okafor is scheduled for an MRI on Monday to confirm the severity of his injury. If the 28-year-old is indeed diagnosed with a torn pec, he'll be ruled out for the remainder of the season. In that case, Tanoh Kpassagnon and Demone Harris would stand to play expanded roles on defense. Teammate Emmanuel Ogbah suffered the same injury in November and is now on IR.

  • Dealing with pectoral injury

    Coach Andy Reid said Okafor sustained a pectoral injury during Sunday's game against the Broncos, BJ Kissel of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    Analysis: Okafor was knocked out of Sunday's contest after suffering the injury, which was originally classified as a chest issue. The severity of the injury remains unclear, though his status should be updated once the Chiefs return to practice Wednesday.

  • Done for day

    Okafor (chest) is ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    Analysis: Okafor has already missed four games this season due to injuries. His absence is a major hit to the team's defensive line, and Tanoh Kpassagnon will likely be the main beneficiary of Okafor's absence.

  • Back to full health

    Okafor (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Okafor appears to have fully recovered from the high-ankle sprain he suffered Week 8. Barring any setbacks, expect the 28-year-old defensive end to play his usual starting role against the Raiders on Sunday.

  • Practicing Wednesday

    Okafor (ankle) returned to practice Wednesday, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Okafor hasn't practiced since suffering a high-ankle sprain Week 8 against the Packers, so it's likely he's being kept to limited participation during this session. The 28-year-old defensive end will be monitored for the rest of the week and will likely still carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Raiders, but he has a shot to play in the divisional showdown. Okafor has recorded 18 tackles and three sacks over eight games.

  • Out Week 11

    Okafor (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Chargers.

    Analysis: Okafor will miss his third consecutive game after suffering the ankle injury Week 8 versus the Packers. Emmanuel Ogbah (pectoral) is also sidelined, leaving Frank Clark and Tanoh Kpassagnon as the team's only healthy defensive ends.

  • Won't practice Thursday

    Okafor (ankle) will not participate in Thursday's practice, BJ Kissel of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    Analysis: Okafor has yet to resume practicing since suffering an ankle issue injury Week 8. He'll have two more opportunities to ramp up his practice reps ahead of Monday's tilt against the Chargers, but it currently looks as though Okafor is trending towards missing a third straight game.

  • Out again Week 10

    Okafor (ankle) was ruled out for Sunday's game at Tennessee, BJ Kissel of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    Analysis: Okafor has been unable to practice since suffering the injury Week 8 against the Packers and will miss his second straight game. Emmanuel Ogbah should again see increased reps at defensive end in his place.

  • Ruled out Sunday

    Okafor (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

    Analysis: This was expected, as Okafor was unable to practice this week. He'll miss his first game this year, while Emmanuel Ogbah should continue to see increased playing time as a result.

    Published: Fri, Nov 1 at 3:43pm by Rotowire.com

  • Sitting out practice Wednesday

    Okafor (ankle) won't practice Wednesday, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.

    Analysis: Okafor had X-rays during this past Sunday's loss to the Packers and he didn't return. It's unsettled how severe his injury is, but sitting out the first official practice of the week isn't a positive sign. Frank Clark (neck) also missed practice, so Emmanuel Ogbah and Tanoh Kpassagnon are in line for first-team reps in their steads.

  • Return questionable against GB

    Okafor is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Packers due to an ankle injury.

    Analysis: Okafor had to go to the locker room for X-rays, as the Chiefs defense continues to get ravaged by injuries. Hopefully Okafor's injury doesn't prove to be too serious.

  • Records two sacks

    Okafor had four solo tackles, two sacks and a forced fumble in Thursday's win over the Broncos.

    Analysis: Okafor joined in the sack parade Thursday as Denver's offensive line surrendered eight sacks overall. The 28-year-old has 17 tackles (12 solo) and three sacks through six games.

  • No limitations Wednesday

    Okafor (hip) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Okafor's absence lasted just one game, as he'll be ready for Sunday's matchup versus the Texans. The veteran defensive end has an inconsistent role on the Chiefs' defense, but he features pass-rushing upside, which will come in handy against Deshaun Watson.

  • Inactive for SNF

    Okafor (hip) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Colts, BJ Kissel of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    Analysis: Okafor has a steady role on the Chiefs' defense, as he's a run stopper with pass-rushing abilities. In his stead, both Emmanuel Ogbah and Tanoh Kpassagnon figure to see an increase in reps.

    Published: Sun, Oct 6 at 4:16pm by Rotowire.com

  • Listed as questionable

    Okafor (hip) is considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts.

    Analysis: Okafor suffered a hip strain in the Chiefs' Week 4 victory over the Lions. Coach Andy Reid downplayed the injury following the game, but subsequent limited practices this week have led to Okafor drawing a questionable tag. Emmanuel Ogbah and Tanoh Kpassagnon will be in line for increased workloads should he end up not playing.

  • Injury not serious

    Coach Andy Reid said following Sunday's win over Detroit that Okafor should be okay after suffering a hip strain, BJ Kissel of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    Analysis: Okafor suffered the injury late in Sunday's game but, as evidenced by this news, shouldn't be sidelined for too long. The 28-year-old had a decent game before departing, making two tackles and his first sack of the 2019 campaign. Expect Okafor's practice availability throughout the upcoming week to shed more light on his status for Week 5.

  • Knocked out Sunday

    Okafor (hip) won't return to Sunday's game against the Lions.

    Analysis: It's unclear how Okafor suffered the injury, but the team will be without on of their best pass rushers for crunch time. Okafor exits the game with two solo tackles, as well as his first sack of the season. With Okafor out, look for Emmanuel Ogbah to see an increase in reps. Expect the team to comment on Okafor's status following the game or in the coming days.

  • Returns to action

    Okafor (hip) is participating at practice Monday, Brooke Pryor of The Kansas City Star reports.

    Analysis: Okafor exited practice last Sunday with a hip injury, but he's good to go after sitting out Saturday's preseason opener. The 28-year-old lines up to start at defensive end opposite of Frank Clark for the Chiefs.

    Published: Mon, Aug 12 at 11:00am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Leaves practice Sunday

    Okafor was forced to leave Sunday's practice due to a hip injury, BJ Kissel of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    Analysis: It's unclear how the Texas product picked up the injury, but he was not able to return to practice. Okafor was recently signed to a three-year, $18 million contract this offseason, so expect the team to take a cautious approach while training camp goes on. Expect the Chiefs to have an update on Okafor's health in the near future.

  • Signs with Kansas City

    Okafor has signed a three-year, $18 million contract with the Chiefs, Terez A. Paylor of Yahoo Sports reports.

    Analysis: Since the Saints eventually need to let 2018 first-rounder Marcus Davenport grow into the starting defensive end role opposite 2018 All-Pro Cameron Jordan, it made sense for Okafor to sign elsewhere. A Chiefs team -- that no longer has Dee Ford -- is a good fit. In Kansas City, Okafor should immediately step into the starting lineup and command plenty of playing time.

  • To hit open market

    Despite agreeing to a two-year contract with New Orleans last offseason, Okafor is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent at the start of the league year March 13, Herbie Toepe of NFL.com reports.

    Analysis: At the time Okafor signed, he was coming back from an Achilles injury that prematurely ended his 2017 season. As part of the deal, Okafor's representatives reportedly bargained for a clause in Okafor's contract that allowed the defensive end to become an unrestricted free agent if he totaled at least three sacks in 2018. Since Okafor ultimately recorded four sacks, he was able to trigger the clause, which now sets the 28-year-old up for a potential pay raise on the open market this offseason.

  • Practices in full

    Okafor (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Nick Underhill of The New Orleans Advocate reports.

    Analysis: Okafor was limited in practice to begin the week due to a hyperextension in his knee, but he now appears to have fully recovered. Barring any setbacks, expect the 27-year-old defensive end to draw his usual start during Sunday's divisional-round playoff game against the Eagles.

  • Nursing knee injury

    Okafor (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Okafor is nursing a light hyperextension in his knee, putting his status for Sunday's divisional-round game against the Eagles up in the air. The 27-year-old's limited participation in practice is a positive sign, and Okafor appears to be trending toward drawing his usual start in New Orleans' defensive line.

  • Dealing with light hyper-extension

    Okafor is dealing with a hyperextension, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Analysis: The specifics of the injury haven't been released, but Okafor reassured reporters Wednesday that the issue is nothing serious. By all accounts, Okafor is on track to resume practicing next week. He'll benefit from the Saints' first-round playoff bye.

  • Brings down quarterback in win

    Okafor posted two solo tackles and a sack during Sunday's 48-7 win against the Eagles.

    Analysis: Okafor now has a sack in each of the Saints' last two games, vaulting his total to three on the year. Okafor has seen an increased workload as of late with Marcus Davenport (toe) sidelined.

    Published: Mon, Nov 19 at 6:08pm by Rotowire.com

  • Half-sack in win

    Okafor recorded three tackles (two solo) and 0.5 sacks across 38 defensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Bengals.

    Analysis: Through nine games, Okafor has 13 tackles and 1.5 sacks. Those numbers are down from last season, but it should be noted that the veteran is now competing with rookie Marcus Davenport (toe) for reps. Davenport (toe) will likely remain out for a few more weeks, which will lead to increased action for Okafor.
