The Kansas City Chiefs will be without one of their wide receivers for “some time” following an unfortunate dislocation during their game against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Saturday night. Marquise Brown, who joined the team during the offseason, had to be hospitalized after suffering a car crash-type injury in the preseason fixture.
The wideout is understood to have sustained a sternoclavicular joint dislocation, which, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, is more likely to happen in a vehicular accident than on a football field.
“Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown spent the night at the hospital after suffering a sternoclavicular joint dislocation vs. the #Jaguars — an injury more associated with a car crash,” Rapoport tweeted.

Chiefs head coach Andy Reid revealed Brown was checked out at a local hospital and should be out for a few games. The coach compared the injury to the one Tyreek Hill sustained during the 2019 season, which kept him out for four games.
