Darling’s Season Is Over Says Brother

The Chiefs keep a cap on all information having to do with the team, especially when it comes to injury.

Sometimes that blanket  of secrecy gets breached by family members.

The brother of Devard Darling has told the Nassau Guardian that the wide receiver’s season is done because of an ACL injury with his left knee. Here’s what the Guardian reported:

“Darling couldn’t be reached for comment yesterday, but older brother Dennis explained that it was an unfortunate incident that comes with the reality of playing in the National Football League.

“Football is a physical sport and these things just happen. It was a tough break and it was very disappointing for us and for Devard,” said Dennis. “We were looking for some big things from him this year, especially with him starting at wide receiver, but unfortunately he won’t get that opportunity now.”

Darling was injured in the second quarter of last Saturday’s pre-season game against Seattle.  With the NFL cutdown to 75 on Tuesday, expect Darling to be one of those five moves.

    No player should end the season on a injury much less a career. Unfortunately it seems to be that how it runs in profootball. Hope Darling can come back next year with the Chiefs or some one else.

    Shame, because Darling was having a great camp and was primed to finally establish himself as an NFL WR. Plus, he’s a good special teams player. Hopefully Bradely can step up and claim the spot opposite Bowe.

    Are you serious? Darling is about as inept at catching the ball as a man with no arms.

    I’m a douchebag.
