In Week 13, Green Bay hosts Kansas City for “Sunday Night Football.”

Each practice day of the season, the Kansas City Chiefs release an official injury report leading up to the next game. This week, the Chiefs take on the Green Bay Packers on Sunday at 7:20 p.m. Arrowhead Time.

Here is the Chiefs’ second official injury report of the week:

Some notes

  • After being held out of practice Friday and Wednesday, running back Jerick McKinnon (groin) was back — but limited — on Thursday. For what it’s worth, the Chiefs added running back Keontay Ingram to the practice squad on Thursday.
  • Linebacker Nick Bolton (wrist) remains limited after being designated to return from injured reserve on Wednesday. I think the Chiefs will take it slow with Bolton as he attempts to return to the lineup. He can stay on injured reserve for up to 21 days.
  • After missing the last game, wide receiver Kadarius Toney (ankle/hip) has logged two straight full practices.
  • On the Packers’ side, two key offensive contributors — running back Aaron Jones (knee) and wide receiver Jayden Reed (chest) — have missed both practices to start the week.
  • Cornerback Jaire Alexander (shoulder) was listed as limited both Wednesday and Thursday, and running back AJ Dillon (groin) returned to practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday but was limited.
