Chiefs Are Healthy Leaving Training Camp

chiefs-f-i-2

Of all the things the Kansas City Chiefs wanted to accomplish during their three-week getaway to training camp at Missouri Western, returning home with everyone healthy probably topped the list.

Not only did they accomplish that, they actually improved their roster depth.

With the signing of cornerback Morris Claiborne to a one-year prove-it deal, the Chiefs bolstered what was undoubtedly the weakest position group on the team. And when you consider the only big injury of camp was to backup cornerback Keith Reaser, the Chiefs are heading back to Kansas City in good shape.

DE Frank Clark and WR Sammy Watkins returned to practice Thursday after illnesses. … WRs Gehrig Dieter (back) and Davon Grayson, DE Michael Hunter (groin) and TE John Lovett (shoulder) will not play at Pittsburgh. … Coach Andy Reid said that starters will play most of the first half against the Steelers. Backups will get the third quarter and everyone else will play in the fourth.
