The Kansas City Chiefs may have an 8-4 record, but they aren’t as strong overall as one would expect an 8-4 team to be.
Unlike in past years, they don’t have a consistently reliable wide receiver, which has made them overly dependent on star tight end Travis Kelce, and it has made them too predictable and easy to defend in critical situations.
Kansas City has a cadre of young wideouts they have been hoping to develop fast in order to remain in Super Bowl contention, and one of those wideouts has been Justyn Ross.
Ross, who went undrafted out of Clemson University, has missed the team’s last five games after being placed on the Commissioner Exempt List, and he will be suspended by the NFL for violating its personal conduct policy, per Adam Schefter.
Luckily for the Chiefs, games missed by a player while on the Commissioner Exempt List count toward his suspension, and thus he will be able to rejoin his team on Monday.
Chiefs’ WR Justyn Ross, who has missed the last five games on the Commissioner Exempt List after an October incident, will be suspended six regular season games for violating the Personal Conduct Policy, per the NFL. Since any games a player misses while on the list is credited…
The wideout was arrested in late October after he had allegedly been involved in an altercation with his girlfriend.
In seven games this year, Ross has registered three catches for 34 yards.
He collected 2,379 yards and 20 touchdowns in three seasons with the Tigers, and he helped the Tigers win the national championship as a freshman with six catches for 153 yards and one touchdown in the National Championship Game versus the University of Alabama.
