Nick Bolton

Nick Bolton suffered a rib injury during Sunday's game against the Raiders.

Fantasy Impact

Bolton suffered the injury on a tackle. His status will be worth monitoring at practice this upcoming week.

Nick Bolton (elbow) logged a full practice session for the Kansas City Chiefs Monday according to Tom Pelissero.

Fantasy Impact

Bolton will look to reclaim his role as one of Kansas City’s leading defensive options after an injury-riddled 2023 season as the team continues to prepare for their Week 1 contest against the Baltimore Ravens Thursday.

Kansas City linebacker Nick Bolton was carted off the field and to the team's locker room on Tuesday with an apparent arm injury.

Fantasy Impact

Bolton is entering his fourth season with the Chiefs after being a second-round pick out of Missouri. He appeared in 33 games between his first two seasons but only played in eight in 2023 due to a wrist fracture in October. The team's starting LB is one of their best tacklers and has rounded out his game well, and his situation should be monitored given his value to K.C.'s defense.

The Chiefs have activated LB Nick Bolton from injured reserve.

Fantasy Impact

Bolton has suited up in just four games this season due to an ankle injury and a wrist injury. The wrist injury required surgery and landed him on IR. The 23-year-old will be a welcomed addition to a strong Chiefs’ defense.

Chiefs LB Nick Bolton will need surgery on his dislocated wrist and is expected to miss around two months.

Fantasy Impact

Bolton suffered the injured in the fourth quarter and did not return to the game. Bolton already has missed time this season with a high-ankle sprain, so the team has had experience dealing with his absence. The Chiefs will likely turn to veteran Drue Tranquill to fill Bolton’s role moving forward.
