Kansas City Chiefs sign Buffalo Bills quarterback after Patrick Mahomes and Gardner Minshew injuries

Andy Reid and the Kansas City Chiefs have signed quarterback Shane Buechele to ease their injury crisis as they splutter towards the end of the season.

After Patrick Mahomes tore his ACL in last Sunday’s loss to Los Angeles Chargers, his backup Gardner Minshew also sustained a bad knee injury this weekend against Tennessee Titans.

While reports on Monday afternoon cooled fears that Minshew had also torn his ACL, his status prompted the Chiefs to move for Buechele and take him from the Buffalo Bills practice squad.
