Will Gardner Minshew bets be refunded after injury during Chiefs vs. Titans on Sunday 12/21/25?

UPDATE: Chiefs QB Gardner Minshew (knee) will not return to today’s game vs. the Titans, thereby qualifying for Early Exit. It is now feared that Minshew has torn his ACL, which would end his season.

Since Minshew has been officially ruled out, and because he left the game in the first half, DraftKings’ new Early Exit program is now in effect. Anyone who made a single bet on Minshew will receive cash credits. As for parlays, the remaining legs of your parlay will remain open, and the odds of your parlay will be recalculated, excluding the leg that qualifies for Early Exit.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Gardner Minshew left today’s game against the Titans and is questionable to return with a knee injury. He has been replaced in the game by third-string QB Chris Oladokun.

Minshew was starting the game for an already injured Patrick Mahomes, but he has not found his stride. The journeyman had completed three of his eight pass attempts for 15 yards and added one rush attempt for eight yards. Minshew walked off the field with a noticeable limp and had his knee looked at by trainers. After some evaluation, he walked to the locker room under his own power alongside the Chiefs’ training staff.
