Ex-Chiefs QB suffers injury in his first start with a new team

Week 9 of the NFL season is in the books, but some results may still catch Kansas City Chiefs fans' attention. A former backup quarterback for Patrick Mahomes last season made his first start with a new team.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Gardner Minshew is experiencing an unfortunate case of dejavu after suffering an injury in his first start this season. The former Chiefs quarterback suffered a UCL injury on a strip-sack during Sunday's 17-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. He remained in the game, finishing with 166 yards on 21-of-30 passing.

Minshew is seeking additional medical opinion on whether he needs surgery and will miss the rest of the season. A similar scenario occurred during his lone start with the Chiefs, when a knee injury ended his season early. Chris Oladokun finished the rest of last season for Kansas City, while this year in Arizona, rookie Carson Beck is in line to make the next start.

The Cardinals recently traded their original starter, Jacoby Brissett, to the Baltimore Ravens, giving Minshew the chance to take over. In four games played with Kansas City last season, Minshew finished with six completions for 37 yards and an interception.
