Chiefs OL Wanya Morris’ Leg Bends In Way No Leg Is Supposed To Bend As He Suffers Horrific Injury During ‘SNF’ Matchup vs. Texans [VIDEO]
This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.
The Kansas City Chiefs could lose offensive lineman Wanya Morris for some time following what looks to be a serious injury.
Morris, a starter for KC, sustained a worrying hyperextension on the first drive of the game. His knee bent the opposite way as his boot appeared to get stuck in the turf while his body kept moving.
You can see the injury right below, but it is quite graphic.

Morris’ injury was not the only one of its kind to take place on Sunday.
Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz had something similar happen to him during a loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
The TE was attempting to make a catch after Marcus Mariota threw the ball into a dangerous area. He was hit while coming down, causing his knee to bend backward as he landed. He was eventually carted off the field.
On a more positive note, Wanya Morris was able to get off the field on his own. It’s hoped that he avoided ligament damage.
