Eric Fisher Suffers Confirmed Achilles Tear, Will Miss Super Bowl

The Chiefs premier left tackle will miss the Super Bowl after suffering a torn Achilles in the Conference Championship. This is a huge blow to an offensive line that has suffered major injuries all season. This particular injury shifts the offensive line immensely and impacts three spots. The RT goes to LT, the RG goes to RT, and Stefan Wisniewski slides in to guard off the bench. Wisniewski started three games this year but is a downgrade at the RG position. If you add Laurent Duvernay-Tardif who opted before the season started, the Chiefs will be without 4/5 projected offensive lineman starters from the beginning of the season.
