Graham Zusi - Out with quad strain Zusi (quadriceps) is listed as out for Saturday's clash against NYCFC.

Impact Sporting KC manager Peter Vermes said Tuesday that Zusi is "going to be out a little while" with a quad strain he suffered against Dallas last weekend, with the club opting to take a conservative approach rather than rushing the 35-year-old back. Ben Sweat or Cameron Duke will likely fill in for him at right back until he can return.

Tim Melia - Concedes two goals against Dallas Melia made two saves but conceded two goals in Saturday's 2-2 draw against FC Dallas.

Impact Melia was beaten by strikes from Alan Velasco and Jesus Ferreira on Saturday -- the former directly from a free kick from a tight angle -- as his side's winless run extended to five games and through the entirety of April. It won't get any easier next weekend against defending MLS champions NYCFC, which have scored 16 goals in nine matches this season.

Cameron Duke - Records assist in draw Duke subbed into Saturday's match against FC Dallas in the 23rd minute and he assisted a goal in the 2-2 draw. He also made an interception and won three of four tackles.

Impact Duke replaced an injured Graham Zusi (quadriceps) in the first half of Saturday's game and he filled in admirably on both sides of the ball, even setting up Daniel Salloi's equalizing goal. If Zusi isn't fit enough to play next weekend, Duke could be lining up at right back against NYCFC.

Daniel Salloi - Scores goal against Dallas Salloi scored a goal and created two chances in Saturday's 2-2 draw against FC Dallas. He also made two interceptions in the match, and he took five shots (three on target) overall...

Impact Salloi had his best game of the season so far on Saturday as he scored his second goal of the season and was a constant threat to his opponents throughout. The 2021 MLS MVP finalist hadn't found the net in seven appearances since the season opener before this, but he will want to be similarly dangerous next weekend against NYCFC, which have conceded 10 times in seven matches this campaign.

Johnny Russell - Scores penalty against Dallas Russell scored a goal and created four chances in Saturday's 2-2 draw against FC Dallas. He also made an interception and won one of one tackles in the match.

Impact Russell converted from the spot to open the scoring on Saturday, his second goal of the season. He and his side have endured a slow start to 2022, but maybe this can kickstart an uptick in form heading into next weekend's clash against the defending MLS champions NYCFC.

Graham Zusi - Comes off injured against Dallas Zusi was subbed out of Saturday's draw against FC Dallas in the 23rd minute after suffering an apparent quad injury. He won one of one tackles in the match before being taken off.

Impact Zusi has started all 10 of Kansas City's MLS games this season, and he will hope this injury is just a knock and nothing serious. Cameron Duke replaced him on Saturday and could fill in at right back next weekend against NYCFC if necessary.
