Some notes
- For the Chiefs, two players who missed Sunday’s game against the Houston Texans were back at work as full participants on Wednesday: right guard Trey Smith (ankle) and wide receiver (and kick returner) Nikko Remigio (concussion).
- But right tackle Jawaan Taylor (triceps – knee) — who also missed Sunday’s game — did not participate on Wednesday. Also held out was swing tackle Wanya Morris (knee), who was injured on the first play of Sunday’s game while filling in for left tackle Josh Simmons.
- Starting cornerback Trent McDuffie (knee) was also injured on Sunday. He was a limited participant on Wednesday.
- Wide receiver Hollywood Brown (personal) was excused from Wednesday’s practice for personal reasons.
- The rest of the Kansas City players who were listed on the report were full participants. These included quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee), who was favoring his knee during the Houston game.
- For the Chargers, starting quarterback Justin Herbert (left hand) was limited. He told reporters that he was given precautionary X-rays after playing against the Eagles on Monday night — and that there was no evidence of further damage to his broken hand. “Everything was clean for the most part,” he said. “It’s just getting the swelling down and continuing to get full strength in it and continuing to do as much treatment as I can.”
- Two other starters — starting right tackle Trey Pipkins III (ankle) and starting defensive back Elijah Molden (hamstring) — did not participate. They were joined by rotational linebacker Troy Dye (hip) and special teams wide receiver Derius Davis (ankle).
- Two veteran starters — wide receiver Keenan Allen and starting outside linebacker Khalil Mack — were held out for rest.
- Two other important contributors — starting wide receiver Ladd McConkey (foot) and rotational tight end Will Dissly (shoulder) — were limited on Wednesday.
