Damion

McIntosh

He’s been sidelined since March ankle surgery. He’ll back up the tackle positions at this point.

He can’t place weight on his ankle while recovering, which places his 2004 season in jeopardy.

McIntosh was in town three days and they waited until after he signed a contract to give him a physical? McIntosh also failed a physical last week with the Raiders and likely needs ankle surgery. Miami may still sign him.

He’ll compete with second-year pro Vernon Carey to start at left tackle for Miami’s question O-line.

If he’s correct, Chiefs fans around the U.S. can breathe a collective sigh of relief. Terry has a history of similar problems and may have been subject to a season-long suspension atleast had he been charged. The Chiefs should have a solid bookend duo of tackles of Terry and LT Damion McIntosh.

McIntosh was initially expected to miss four-to-six weeks, but this won’t help him get back on the field sooner than later. He’s questionable for Week 1.

Head coach Herm Edwards added “it’ll be a while” before McIntosh returns and that third-year tackle Will Svitek will replace him. Another blow to the Chiefs offensive line, still trying to replace former Pro Bowlers Willie Roaf and Will Shields.

He’s questionable for Week 1’s matchup against Houston. Will Svitek, who has appeared in one career game at tackle, will replace him. It’s very bad news for the Chiefs’ offense and likely opening-day starter Brodie Croyle.

Will Svitek is the most obvious choice to replace McIntosh while he ails. It’s uncertain how long the pricy free agent pickup will be sidelined for.
