  • Chiefs HC Andy Reid spoke about the team’s injury situation ahead of practice on Wednesday. You can read about that here.

  • Reminder: Until Lucas Niang is on the 53-man roster, the team is not required to report his practice status.

  • Willie Gay Jr. was listed as limited in practice with a hamstring injury. Hopefully, it’s nothing serious because this is not the week you want to be without your most athletic linebacker.
