KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Chiefs’ Nick Bolton had surgery in Los Angeles on his fractured wrist this week, though coach Andy Reid said Wednesday he was not sure whether the linebacker would land on injured reserve or how long he might be out.
Reid said there was no need during the procedure Tuesday for metal to be put into the wrist to support it, and that could help Bolton return to the field quicker. He already has missed three games this season because of an ankle injury.
Bolton, a second-round pick in the 2021 draft, has become one of the league’s best playmaking linebackers. He made 180 tackles with two sacks and had two interceptions last season.
In other news, Reid said Justyn Ross would practice one day after the 32-year-old wide receiver was charged with misdemeanor domestic battery and criminal damage to property and released after posting a $2,500 bond.
Ross, who is due again in court on Dec. 4., has been a bit player for the defending Super Bowl champions this season. He has been active in their first seven games but has just three catches for 34 yards on the season.
