Trending toward DNP Edwards-Helaire (ankle) isn't in uniform ahead of Friday's preseason game against the Vikings, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports. Impact Edwards-Helaire emerged from preseason Week 2 with a sprained ankle, which coach Andy Reid said didn't appear to be of the high-ankle variety, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. No matter, the injury kept Edwards-Helaire out of practice in the interim, according to Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star. If both Edwards-Helaire and Darrel Williams (head) are sidelined Friday, the Chiefs will be down to RBs Jerick McKinnon, Darwin Thompson and Derrick Gore and FB Michael Burton out of the backfield.
