Osemele was carted off the field in the first half, and it appears the veteran lineman's season is over. Mike Remmers replaced him at left guard for the remainder of Sunday's game and could handle that role moving forward. Osemele is expected to land on IR in the near future.

Chiefs' Kelechi Osemele: Carted off Sunday
Osemele (knee) left Sunday's game against the Raiders on a cart, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.
This is rough news for the veteran, as it's certainly a bad sign to see the cart come out, especially so early in the game. Mike Remmers is expected to take over at left guard as long as Osemele is sidelined.

Chiefs' Kelechi Osemele: Heading to KC
Osemele (shoulder) signed a one-year deal worth up to $2 million deal with the Chiefs on Saturday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
The 31-year-old appeared in only three games with the Jets last season while dealing with a shoulder injury, and he was released in October about a disagreement whether surgery was necessary. He went under the knife in October and should be healthy for the 2020 season. Osemele helps fill the significant hole at offensive guard with Laurent Duvernay-Tardif choosing to opt out of the 2020 season.
