During the Chiefs’ preseason loss to the Arizona Cardinals, defensive end Janarius Robinson suffered a brutal broken bone:

Head coach Andy Reid confirmed the injury on Monday but did not provide a timeline for Robinson’s return.

Likely in a related move, the Chiefs signed defensive end Nate Matlack ahead of Monday morning’s practice.

Robinson, 26, sacked Cardinals quarterback Clayton Tune for a 9-yard loss in Saturday’s 20-17 defeat in Glendale, Ariz.

A fourth-round pick by the Minnesota Vikings in 2021, Robinson signed with the Chiefs in April. He played in 16 games (three starts) for the Las Vegas Raiders from 2023-24, recording 1.5 sacks and 13 tackles.
