Some notes
- Just as before Week 1’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers, Kansas City begins the week with rookie wide receiver Jalen Royals held out of practice as he continues to deal with tendonitis in his knee. On Wednesday, head coach Andy Reid said that Royals would “probably not” be back for Sunday’s game, calling it “a stretch” to think he could play so soon.
- Second-year wide receiver Xavier Worthy left the Chargers game with a dislocated shoulder. He did not participate in Wednesday’s practice. So far, we have not been given an official timeline for his return — but on Wednesday, we got two encouraging pieces of news: no surgery is planned and the team does not intend to place him on the Reserve/Injured list. Our best guess is that he could return to play in as little as 3-4 weeks.
- Reid said on Wednesday that both players are on the right track. “Both are doing better,” he told reporters. “They’re working on it and making progress. But they’re not ready to go today, for sure.”
- There are two surprises on the Chiefs’ report: right guard Trey Smith (illness/knee) and linebacker Drue Tranquill (knee) were both limited in Wednesday’s practice. At this time, we have no additional information about either injury.
- The biggest name on the Eagles’ injury report is tight end Dallas Goedert, who caught seven catches for 44 yards in Philadelphia’s Week 1 victory over the Dallas Cowboys. He did not participate on Wednesday because of a knee sprain, and there is a good chance he will not play on Sunday.
- Like Worthy, Philadelphia running back Will Shipley (oblique) left the Eagles’ Week 1 game after only a few snaps. He and backup quarterback Tanner McKee (thumb) did not participate on Wednesday.
