[Kansas City.com] Long snapper Jean-Philippe Darche suffered a season-ending knee injury during Sunday’s loss to the New York Jets, the latest member of the Chiefs’ special-teams squad to be replaced.
Darche was placed on injured reserve Wednesday and will require surgery to repair his knee. The Chiefs signed free-agent snapper Thomas Gafford to a two-year contract.
In a little more than a week, the Chiefs have practiced and played with a new kicker, punter/holder and now a new snapper.
Looks like special teams players are getting worn down.

That’s what happens when you have to punt 10 times a game.
I am surprised Colquit’s leg hasen’t fallen off.
