New York Times  

— A year ago, the Kansas City Chiefs finished training camp without a significant injury, one of the underrated factors that help them become Super Bowl champions. As expected, Reid conducted another fully padded practice Tuesday, less than 48 hours after the Chiefs’ preseason opener against the New Orleans Saints. GO DEEPER The Chiefs' pass rush is lacking, plus more takeaways from Sunday's preseason opener With the team set to end camp Thursday, we’ve updated our projection of the Chiefs’ initial 53-man roster. Three new players have proven worthy, with their reps in camp and their production in Sunday’s preseason game, of earning a spot ahead of opening night, when the Chiefs host the Detroit Lions on Sept.7. I think he’ll be all right.” Wide receivers Kadrius Toney, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Skyy Moore, Justin Watson, Richie James, Rashee Rice, Justyn Ross The Chiefs will have to carry Toney on the initial roster because he did participate in the team’s opening practice of camp.
