Jaylen Watson, cornerback for the Kansas City Chiefs, is set to undergo surgery due to a broken fibula and tibia. His potential return this season hinges on the Chiefs' playoff success.

Watson, who has been a consistent starter this season, suffered the injury during a recent victory against the San Francisco 49ers. He was drafted in 2022 and has played significant roles in both regular and postseason games.

Joshua Williams and Nazeeh Johnson are poised to step in as replacements for Watson.
