  "account": "The Kansas City Chiefs are set to face the New York Jets in Week 9, but they will be without two crucial defenders on Sunday. According to ESPN's Nate Taylor, rookie defensive tackle Peter Woods and cornerback Mansoor Delane will not participate in the game. Chiefs head coach Andy Reid confirmed that Woods sustained a neck stinger during the first half of their Week 8 match against the Denver Broncos. Despite making progress, Reid expressed optimism about Woods' situation. Woods has played seven games this season, logging 13 tackles, a 0.5 sack, and one pass defense. Meanwhile, Delane will miss his second consecutive game after reinjuring his shoulder during training camp. Delane has been a standout defender this season, tallying 27 tackles, five passes defended, and an interception in just five games. The Chiefs chose Delane as the No. 6 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, with LSU stats including 45 tackles, 11 passes defended, and two interceptions in 2025. Woods, the No. 29 overall pick, attended Clemson, where he amassed 82 tackles, five sacks, two forced fumbles, and one pass defense from 2023 to 2025.",
