NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Chiefs coach Andy Reid told Josh Simmons to leave a team meeting on Wednesday.

25 October 2026

According to Rapoport, Simmons was sitting with his feet up during a meeting and Reid told him to put his feet down. Simmons then “pushed back” by saying he had to sit that way because of his back injury. Reid then sent him to get treatment from the training staff. Even Patrick Mahomes chimed in and told Simmons to leave. Simmons was placed on injured reserve the next day. The former first-round pick appeared in just eight games as a rookie and hasn’t taken the field yet this year. Now he’s becoming a problem in the locker room on top of his never-ending health issues. We wouldn’t expect to see him play in a Chiefs uniform again anytime soon.
