Chiefs RB Derrick Gore questionable to return vs. Bears with neck injury

The Kansas City Chiefs will be without one of their running backs for the fourth quarter of preseason Week 1 against the Chicago Bears.

The team has announced that RB Derrick Gore has suffered a neck injury and will be questionable to return to the game. Gore has struggled in this game so far with two carries for -2 yards. He’s also just 1-for-3 for six yards on the day on passes that have come his way. The injury occurred in the third quarter on a play when Gore was stuffed and fumbled the ball.

Frankly, outside of Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Isiah Pacheco, there hasn’t been much to get excited about in the running back room. Still, Gore is someone with some experience in the offense, who you don’t want to see injured during the course of the preseason. Tayon Fleet-Davis replaced Gore in the fourth quarter and seems to be who the team is rolling with for the time being.
