## Resource

Chiefs’ offensive line faces a major test as key second-year blocker Josh Simmons is likely out for their opener against the Broncos, forcing rookie Kahlil Benson into the starting lineup at left tackle — a huge challenge for a first-year player. With Patrick Mahomes making his return from a season-ending injury, the entire offense hinges on this unit’s ability to protect him and set the tone in a high-stakes Monday Night Football showdown against a division rival.
