Clyde Edwards-Helaire - In the mix behind Pacheco As Thursday's preseason finale against the Bears approaches, Jesse Newell of the Kansas City Star projects that Edwards-Helaire (illness) will maintain his spot in a Chiefs' backf...

Impact The report notes that Edwards-Helaire, who revealed last month that he deals with post-traumatic stress disorder, has missed a number of practices in training camp, however offensive coordinator Matt Nagy indicated Tuesday that despite the 2020 first-rounder's missed time the Chiefs "know who Clyde is and what he's done," adding "he's a guy that's put a lot of good film out there. He's had a lot of valuable snaps here in Kansas City. We know what his strengths are, and we know how to use him." Along with Edwards-Helaire, Deneric Prince and Carson Steele are also in the team's running back mix behind Pacheco ahead of Week 1.

McKade Mettauer - IR-bound with knee injury Mettauer (knee) reverted to Kansas City's injured reserve list Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact He's expected to stay on the injured reserve list for the whole of the 2024 campaign as he recovers from a ruptured MCL. Nick Torres could see an uptick in action at practice in the meantime.

James Winchester - Should be good for Week 1 Special teams coordinator Dave Toub said Tuesday that Winchester (shoulder) will be held out of practice this week and should be ready for the Chiefs' regular-season opener against...

Impact Winchester suffered an AC sprain in his shoulder in Saturday's preseason game against the Lions. Toubs appeared optimistic Tuesday that the rest will be enough for Winchester to be ready for the regular-season opener. The Chiefs signed Randen Plattner on Monday to handle special-teams snaps in case Winchester is sidelined for longer than anticipated.

Joshua Williams - Dealing with hamstring injury Williams did not participate in Tuesday's practice due to a hamstring injury, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.

Impact Williams played 21 snaps (13 on defense, eight on special teams) and recorded one tackle in Saturday's preseason game against Detroit. With Kansas City playing against Chicago on Thursday, it's unlikely that the 2022 fourth-round pick will suit up for the preseason finale. Williams is slated to serve as the second starting cornerback opposite Trent McDuffie.

Nikko Remigio - Gets endorsement from Toub Special teams coordinator Dave Toub told reporters Tuesday that he will "pound the table" for Remigio to make the Kansas City's 53-man roster as a return specialist, Matt Derrick o...

Impact Remigio has been competing against Skyy Moore, Mecole Hardman and others for a return specialist role on kickoffs and punts during training camp. Across the Chiefs' two preseason games, Remigio has returned his two kickoffs for 31 yards each and added a 42-yard punt return in Saturday's contest against the Lions. He's also seen work on offense, accumulating five catches on eight targets for 51 targets across his two preseason outings. Remigio spent all of 2023 on the Chiefs' reserve/injured list with a wrist injury, and he has the endorsement of Toub to make the final 53-man roster at the end of training camp.

Truman Jones - Misses practice with knee injury Jones didn't practice Monday due to a knee issue, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Impact Jones was active in Kansas City's preseason loss to the Lions on Saturday, logging 43 defensive snaps and 13 special-teams while finishing with two tackles, including a half-sack. He also recovered a fumble in the contest. Jones' ability to play on special teams could bolster his case for a spot on the Chiefs' 53-man roster, but the knee injury may hurt his chances if it's more than minor.

Nazeeh Johnson - Dealing with hamstring injury Johnson missed practice Monday due to a hamstring issue, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Impact Johnson logged 28 defensive snaps along with seven special-teams snaps in Saturday's preseason loss to Detroit without recording any stats. He's likely to make the 53-man roster as a backup corner and special-teams player if he's able to get healthy. It's not yet clear how severe the hamstring issue is or whether Johnson will be able to play in Kansas City's final exhibition contest Thursday versus Chicago.

Clyde Edwards-Helaire - Expected back at practice Coach Andy Reid indicated that he expects Edwards-Helaire (illness) to practice Monday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

Impact Edwards-Helaire didn't play in Saturday's preseason game against the Lions, and it's unclear if he'll see snaps in Kansas City's exhibition finale versus the Bears on Thursday. When available, Edwards-Helaire slots in behind top back Isiah Pacheco, but the 2020 first-rounder's status is worth monitoring ahead of Week 1. In addition to Pacheco and Edwards-Helaire, Deneric Prince and Carson Steele also could factor into Kansas City's backfield equation out of the gate this season.

Patrick Mahomes - Unlikely to play Thursday Coach Andy Reid said Monday that Mahomes and other starters are unlikely to play in Thursday's preseason game against Chicago, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Mahomes played the first two preseason games and completed 11 of 18 passes for 120 yards, with highlights including a 37-yard completion to rookie Xavier Worthy during Saturday's loss to the Lions. Marquise Brown's health is perhaps the biggest question for Kansas City's offense ahead of a Week 1 home game against the Ravens, after the wideout suffered a sternoclavicular injury August 10. A recovery timeline of 4-6 weeks was reported shortly thereafter, putting Brown in serious doubt for the Week 1 rematch of last season's AFC Championship Game.
