Ever since the announcement of the Royals being ruled out due to his knee injury, fans have been taking to social media to share their reactions.

“Absence is especially notable, Chiefs will lean more heavily on veterans,” a fan wrote. “Hate when they get injured” a fan shared.“Prayers up for him” a fan expressed. “Yup this guy won’t play more than 15 snaps this seasons,” a fan predicted.
