Chamarri Conner - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Tallies seven tackles in Week 7 loss Conner finished Sunday's 20-3 loss to Seattle with seven tackles (two solo).

Impact Conner was on the field for every single defensive snap for a second consecutive game following the Chiefs' Week 5 bye. He missed the first three games of the regular season due to a knee injury but has suited up for each of the team's last three contests, during which he has accumulated 17 tackles (nine solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one pass defense.

Logs full practice Wednesday Conner (knee) was a full participant at practice Wednesday.

Impact Conner has still yet to make his regular-season debut in 2026 due to a knee injury he suffered before the campaign started, but it now looks like he's on track to do so in Week 4. He projects to start at safety next to free-agent acquisition Alohi Gilman on Sunday at Las Vegas.

Impact Conner's game-day status will rely on a promising week of practice. The strong safety was a limited participant in the lead-up to Sunday's win over the Dolphins but was ultimately unable to suit up for the contest. Conner will likely need to achieve full participation in at least one session before being greenlit to play in the Chiefs' divisional matchup with the Raiders on Sunday.

Won't play against Miami Conner (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

Impact Conner was limited in practice all week by a knee injury and initially drew the doubtful tag following Friday's session. Now that he's been officially ruled out, Jaden Hicks figures to join Alohi Gilman as the Chiefs' starting safeties for Sunday's game, with Xavier Nwankpa providing depth at the position. Conner's next opportunity to play is Week 4 against the Raiders on Sunday, Oct. 4.

Not likely to suit up Sunday Conner (knee) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Impact Connor did not miss a single practice in Week 3, logging limited participation in all three practice sessions. Despite this string of attendance, it appears the Chiefs do not think the strong safety is quite ready to return to the field after suffering a knee injury during the preseason. If Conner is ruled out ahead of Sunday's contest, Jaden Hicks will likely start at strong safety in his stead.
