INJURIES

Rehab going well Fortson (Achilles) shared images Thursday of him doing individual football drills with personal trainer Bobby Stroupe in Texas, Juan Cisneros of FOX 4 Kansas City reports.
Impact Fortson caught five passes for 47 yards and two touchdowns across six games during the 2021 campaign before suffering a season-ending Achilles injury during the Chiefs' Week 6 win over Washington. The 26-year-old, who's an exclusive rights free agent, was tendered by Kansas City in mid-March and, barring his health, could have a larger role in 2022 after the departure of Tyreek Hill. It's an encouraging sign to see the second-year tight end training with Stroupe, who's also Patrick Mahomes' trainer, but it remains unclear if he'll be 100 percent by the start of training camp.
APRIL 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Tendered by Kansas City Kansas City tendered Fortson (Achilles), an exclusive rights free agent, Friday, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
Impact Fortson caught five passes for 47 yards and two touchdowns across six games during the 2021 campaign before suffering a season-ending Achilles injury during the Chiefs' Week 6 win over Washington. He's expected to be ready by the start of the 2022 season, so he'll have a chance to build off his solid start in 2021.

Chiefs with no new COVID-19 positives; Gordon, Gay return

The Chiefs had no additional positive COVID-19 tests Wednesday, one day after seven players were added to the reserve list, a promising sign that an outbreak that infected 16 playe...
DECEMBER 22, 2021
Activated off COVID-19 list Fortson (Achilles) was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.
Impact Forston has cleared protocols and can return to the team facility. However, the 26-year-old is still expected to miss the rest of the season due to a torn Achilles, so this move was simply procedural.
DECEMBER 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Lands on COVID list Fortson (Achilles) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Charles Goldman of The Chiefs Wire reports.
Impact Fortson was already on injured reserve due to a torn Achilles. He's been ruled out for the season, so this move was simply procedural.
DECEMBER 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Lands on IR The Chiefs placed Fortson (Achilles) on injured reserve Saturday.
Impact As expected, Fortson has landed on IR after an MRI confirmed that he suffered a season-ending Achilles injury during the Chiefs' Week 6 win. The reserve tight end recorded five catches for 47 yards and two touchdowns across six games during the 2021 campaign. Noah Gray and Blake Bell will likely see more opportunities behind Travis Kelce with Fortson out for the year.

Tears his Achilles Fortson suffered a torn Achilles in Sunday's win over Washington and will miss the rest of the season, according to James Palmer of NFL Network.
Impact Fortson's worst case scenario has been confirmed, and the tight end will miss the rest of the regular season as a result. Fortson made one catch for 27 yards Sunday against Washington, and he ends the season with five grabs for 47 yards and two scores across six games.

Suffers Achilles injury Fortson (Achilles) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against Washington.
Impact While no diagnosis has been confirmed, Fortson was down for a while before getting carted off and the injury looked pretty bad. The coming days will be decisive to determine the severity of the injury, but it wouldn't be surprising if he has to miss an extended period of time.

Finds pay dirt again Fortson logged a two-yard touchdown reception on his only target Sunday versus the Eagles.
Impact Fortson saw a season-high 13 snaps (21 percent) in the contest but was primarily on the field in multiple tight end sets to help with the run game. He has begun to find some utility near the goal line but seems unlikely to produce enough on a weekly basis to warrant fantasy consideration in the vast majority of formats.
