Some notes

  • The Chiefs have added four players who did not participate on Tuesday to their Reserve/Injured list: wide receiver Rashee Rice (concussion), wide receiver Tyquan Thornton (concussion), cornerback Trent McDuffie (knee) and cornerback Jaylen Watson (groin). This will end their seasons.

  • Five Chiefs have been listed as questionable for Thursday’s game: wide receiver Nikko Remigio (knee) did not participate on Tuesday and Wednesday. Defensive tackle Derrick Nnadi (illness), defensive end George Karlaftis (illness) and linebacker Nick Bolton (illness) were all limited on Wednesday. Right tackle Jaylon Moore (knee) was a full participant.

  • Tight end Jake Briningstool (hamstring) was also a full participant, but has been declared out. For now he will remain on the team’s Resserve/Injured list. But cornerback Nazeeh Johnson has been activated to the roster from IR. He is good to go for the game.
