Reid: Toney’s injury ‘not compensated’ after WR’s rant

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Coach Andy Reid said the Kansas City Chiefs did not file an incorrect injury report regarding Ka’darius Toney, as wide receiver Ka’darius Toney posted on Instagram Live as claimed in the profanity-filled post.

“He’s been on the injury report, [so] That part is not made up in any way,” Reed said.

Toney said in the post that he did not suffer from the hip and ankle injuries that the Chiefs recently listed on Toney’s weekly injury report.

“I wasn’t hurt,” Tony said. “Nothing.”

Toney hasn’t played since Week 15 against the New England Patriots, when he deflected a pass to a defender and was intercepted for the second time this season. The Chiefs said before Sunday’s AFC Championship Game that Toney would not play due to injuries and personal issues.

Reed said he didn’t see Tony’s post but was told about it. On Monday, Reid said Tony was “working on some issues” and he will practice with the Chiefs on Thursday when they begin practice for Super Bowl 58 against the San Francisco 49ers.

Teams and coaches can be fined by the NFL for issuing inaccurate or misleading injury reports. In December, then-Atlanta Falcons head coach Arthur Smith was fined $25,000 and the team was fined $75,000 for failing to disclose that running back Bijan Robinson had a medical condition. , the ailment limited him against Tampa Bay earlier this season.

The Chiefs were counting on Toney to handle a heavy workload this season, but he only managed 27 catches for 169 yards and one touchdown. He played a big role in last season’s Super Bowl victory over the Philadelphia Eagles, scoring a touchdown in the fourth quarter and returning a kick 65 yards for another touchdown.
