Some notes

  • Linebacker Nick Bolton (ankle) remained limited on Thursday, but cornerback Jaylen Watson (shoulder) was upgraded from a limited to a full participant. Bolton missed the previous two games, and Watson missed the last game. Backup offensive lineman Wanya Morris (hip) was downgraded to a limited participant.
  • Wide receiver Kadarius Toney (toe) and defensive tackle Chris Jones (groin) were full participants both Wednesday and Thursday. That’s a change from Week 4, in which they were limited for every practice heading into Sunday’s game.
  • The two Vikings injuries to watch are that of starting center Garrett Bradbury, who was upgraded to a full participant on Thursday. Linebacker Marcus Davenport (ankle) remained limited, but The Athletic’s Alec Lewis told the “Arrowhead Pride Interview Series” that he anticipates Davenport plays for the second straight game on Sunday.
