Mid Week Report - Week 13


HE'S BACK!!! 

After missing the last five games, Dexter McCluster will be returning to the field this Sunday against the Denver Broncos.  It was likely he was going to come back last week against the Seahawks because he participated in full practice all week, but I guess they felt like it was best to rest him one more week.

The injury report this week is shorter than the report last week.  CB Brandon Flowers is still the biggest name and question mark on the report with his hamstring injury.  His injury is significant because the Denver Broncos passing game is one of the best in the NFL and Flowers is the Chiefs best defensive back.

The other players on the injury report are G Ryan Lilja (foot), S Jon McGraw (head), and CB Jackie Bates. Lilja participated in limited practice today, but is expected to play this week. As for Jon McGraw, after being injured for the past few weeks with a concussion, he practiced fully today and also is expected to play this week.  This will help sure up the secondary and protect against the good passing attack of Denver.

However, Jackie Bates is not expected to play this week because of a knee injury he suffered last week against the Seahawks.

The Chiefs sign CB Mike Richardson today. Richardson played with the team last year and attended training camp this year, but was released prior to this season.  Also, the team released LB Justin Cole today.  He came into the league this year a rookie free agent and was inactive for the first 11 games.
