Some notes
- For the Chiefs, left guard Kingsley Suamataia did not participate on Wednesday, as he remains in the NFL’s concussion protocol after hitting his head during Sunday’s loss to the Denver Broncos.
- “Kingsley won’t practice, but he’s doing well,” head coach Andy Reid told reporters before practice. “He had a concussion, but he’s doing pretty good right now.”
- Wide receiver Xavier Worthy — who has been nursing an ankle injury — also did not participate.
- “Xavier tweaked his ankle a little bit,” said Reid. “He did the walkthrough [this morning]. We’ll see about practice as we go forward, here.”
- But running back Isiah Pacheco — who has missed two weeks of practice (and two games) since suffering an MCL sprain in Week 8 — was back as a full participant on Wednesday.
- For the Colts, rotational defensive end Tyquan Lewis has now missed three games with a groin injury. He did not participate on Wednesday. Neither did veteran cornerback Kenny Moore, who was given a rest day.
- Veteran rotational defensive end Samson Ebukam was a limited participant after missing the last three games with a knee injury. Reserve wide receiver Anthony Gould — the pride of Leavenworth, Kansas and Salem, Oregon — was a full participant after missing two matchups with a knee injury.
- Two players on the injury report were designated to return from the Indianapolis Reserve/Injured list on Wednesday: starting cornerback Charvarius Ward (concussion) and second-year linebacker Jaylon Carlies — who started six games as a rookie but has been sidelined with an ankle injury all season. This opens a 21-day practice window that could lead to their return to the active roster. Both were shown as full participants on Wednesday.
- “He’s closer,” head coach Shane Steichen said of Ward — a former Kansas City player — on Wednesday. “He’s still in the protocol — he’s still got to clear the protocol — but he’ll practice today. He’s been getting some work in on the side with the training staff. Looking forward to getting him back out there this week.”
