On Friday, the Kansas City Chiefs placed veteran defensive lineman Marlon Tuipulotu on their injured reserve list, just over a week before the defending Super Bowl champions’ first postseason game.
Tuipulotu saw action in Kansas City’s loss to the Denver Broncos on Sunday but had been on the team’s practice squad for all of the 2024 season until Week 18.
Against Denver, Tuipulotu registered four combined tackles and played a total of 48 snaps in the Chiefs’ losing effort.
Without Tuipulotu sidelined for the foreseeable future, Kansas City’s front office is likely to sign another defensive lineman to ensure that Steve Spagnuolo has plenty of depth heading into the Chiefs’ first playoff game.

Tuipulotu played collegiately at the University of Southern California, and entered the league as a sixth-round pick of the Philadelphia Eagles after the 2021 NFL draft.
Stay tuned to see if Brett Veach will make a move to sign another defensive lineman in the coming days.
