Practices without limitations Smith-Schuster (concussion) was a full practice participant Wednesday.

Impact The wide receiver returned to practice a day after his 26th birthday and three days after he missed a 30-27 win over the Chargers. Smith-Schuster apparently is making progress through the concussion protocol and still has four days to gain clearance before Sunday's matchup with the Rams. With he and Mecole Hardman (groin) both missing the last game and with Kadarius Toney then suffering a hamstring injury in the first half of the win over the Chargers, Kansas City was left with Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Justin Watson and Skyy Moore as their top three receivers by the end of the contest.

Returns to active roster The Chiefs activated Niang (kneecap) from the reserve/PUP list to the 53-man roster Wednesday.

Impact Niang was designated to return Nov. 2, so he needed to be moved to the active roster or be forced to miss the rest of the season, as his 21-day window to be reinstated was closing. It's unclear whether he'll be ready to return Sunday against the Rams, but if he is, he'll provide depth to the Chiefs offensive line.

Placed on IR The Chiefs placed Edwards-Helaire (ankle) on injured reserve Tuesday.

Impact Edwards-Helaire will miss a minimum of four games while he recovers from a high-ankle sprain, with the Chiefs' Week 16 matchup with Seattle representing the earliest possible date for a return. Isiah Pacheco had supplanted him in the Kansas City backfield in recent weeks anyway, but Edwards-Helaire still had a role off the bench before injuring his ankle in the second quarter of Sunday's win over the Chargers. It'll be Pacheco and Jerick McKinnon leading the way for the Chiefs over the next month, and Ronald Jones may also get some chances for the first time all season.

Could make season debut vs. Rams Coach Andy Reid said Wednesday that Jones has a "legitimate chance" to suit up Sunday versus the Rams, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Jones has been a healthy scratch the entire regular season, but with Clyde Edwards-Helaire (ankle) now headed to injured reserve, Jones could finally get a chance to suit up for Kansas City. In the event that Jones is active Week 12, he'll serve in a depth role behind Isiah Pacheco and Jerick McKinnon.

NOVEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

In line to practice Wednesday Smith-Schuster (concussion) is slated to practice Wednesday, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Per coach Andy Reid , Smith-Schuster - - who was inactive in Week 11 -- "is feeling better" at this stage, but the wide receiver still needs to progress through the league's concussion protocol in order to suit up Sunday against the Rams. Wednesday's practice report will reveal Smith-Schuster's official participation level in his anticipated return to the field.

NFL odds Week 12: How to bet Rams-Chiefs, pick

Set to miss practice Toney (hamstring) won't practice Wednesday, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Toney was forced out of Kansas City's Week 11 win over the Chargers with a hamstring injury after logging 14 snaps. He'll now have two more chances to practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams, but if Toney is unable to suit up, added opportunities would be available for fellow WRs Justin Watson and Skyy Moore.

Slated to go on IR Edwards-Helaire (ankle) is expected to be placed on injured reserve Wednesday, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Impact The move will likely be made official later Wednesday, with Edwards-Helaire set to miss at least four games as a result of the transaction. Isiah Pacheco had already supplanted Edwards-Helaire as the Chiefs' lead back over the past few games, but while Edwards-Helaire is on the mend from a high-ankle sprain, Jerick McKinnon and Ronald Jones could receive additional opportunities in backup roles.

Wrangles two sacks in win Jones recorded five tackles (five solo), including two sacks, during Sunday's 30-27 win over the Chargers.

Impact Jones brought down opposing quarterback Justin Herbert twice in the fourth quarter, including a timely sack for a five-yard loss on the Chargers' second-to-last offensive play of the game. The star defensive lineman has now recorded nine sacks over 10 games this season, including seven over the Chiefs' last five contests. Jones will have a chance to eclipse double-digit sacks for the second time in his career while facing the Rams' injury-riddled offensive line this coming Sunday.

NOVEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Logs 11 tackles Week 11 Gay recorded 11 tackles (seven solo), including one sack, in Sundays 30-27 victory against the Chargers.

Impact Gay saw his highest playing time of the season since Week 2, lining up on 82 percent of the Chiefs' defensive snaps Sunday. As a result, the third-year linebacker logged 11 tackles for the second time in 2022 while adding his second sack in as many games. After being suspended four games for a violation of the league's personal conduct policy, Gay now has 48 tackles (28 solo), 2.5 sacks and three passes defended while playing all but three of his 279 snaps on defense over six games this season, and he should have a chance to play a prominent role against the Rams in Week 12.

NOVEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Stuffs stat sheet in win Bolton recorded 14 tackles (10 solo), one interception and one forced fumble in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Chargers.

Impact Bolton recorded far and away his best outing of the 2022 campaign, as he logged a season high in tackles and forced his first two turnovers of the season. This performance also marked the second-year linebacker's fifth double-digit tackle outing of the season, and he now sits in a four-way tie for the sixth-most tackles (95) in the NFL through 11 weeks. Bolton will look to keep up his emergent 2022 campaign over the Chiefs' final seven games of the season.

NOVEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Key contributor on SNF Butker nailed all three field-goal attempts and all three of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 30-27 win versus the Chargers.

Impact After going without a field-goal attempt last week, Butker took advantage of the opportunities he got Sunday night, knocking home two from inside 40 and one from beyond 50 yards in addition to his three extra-point conversions. Kicking behind the highest-scoring offense in the league, Butker should be rostered in almost all formats that include kickers.

NOVEMBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Nabs three passes Watson recorded three receptions (on four targets) for 67 yards during Sunday's 30-27 win versus the Chargers.

Impact Watson logged a season-high 57 offensive snaps (88 percent) in this contest, which isn't shocking following the news that JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion) and Mecole Hardman (abdomen) would be sidelined for the game and Kadarius Toney (hamstring) also left early and didn't return. If Toney and Smith-Schuster remain sidelined next week, Watson could be worth a look in daily fantasy and some season-long formats.

NOVEMBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Touches on pace, less productive McKinnon tallied six rushes for 24 yards and gathered in his only target for zero yards during Sunday's 30-27 win over the Chargers.

Impact While McKinnon's seven touches equaled the seven he saw last week, only one came via reception for no yardage. However, he could be in line for an expanded role behind Isiah Pacheco, given the news that Clyde Edwards-Helaire suffered a high-ankle sprain during Sunday's game. McKinnon's six totes were his most since week five versus the Raiders.
