Some notes
- Where are running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire and offensive lineman Kyle Long? Though Edwards-Helaire and Long returned to practice on Wednesday, they remain on the injured reserve and PUP list, respectively. They do not appear on the injury report while they are not on the 53-man active roster. The team has three weeks to add them to the roster.
- Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said that defensive lineman Chris Jones (back) and linebacker Dorian O’Daniel (shoulder), though dealing with injuries, were “excused” from practice due to personal reasons.
- Offensive linemen Lucas Niang (ribs) and Mike Remmers (knee) missed practice to start the week, meaning Andrew Wylie could be in line to start at right tackle against the Las Vegas Raiders.
- L’Jarius Sneed also missed practice, popping up with ankle and wrist injuries. The Sneed injury is new and especially worth monitoring considering he is coming off his best game of the season (against the Green Bay Packers).
- There are a couple of Raiders injuries of note: nose tackle Johnathan Hankins (back) missed practice to start the week, while wide receiver Hunter Renfrow (ankle) was limited.
- Raiders star tight end Darren Waller’s absence Wednesday was not injury-related; the team just gave him a rest day.
