The Kansas City Chiefs have released their first injury report ahead of Week 6 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

After having 10 players on the final injury report ahead of the Week 5 bye, Kansas City’s roster appears to be on the mend. Rashee Rice didn’t participate in practice on Wednesday, but the team removed 5 players who were hurt just two weeks ago from the injury report. For the first time since mid-August, Chiefs LT Josh Simmons took part in a limited practice session.

Here’s a quick breakdown of each team’s first Week 6 injury report. Keep in mind that clubs can add to the injury report through Sunday’s kickoff. They will release game status designations on Friday, Oct. 16.

Kansas City Chiefs’ Wednesday injury report for Week 6

Player	Injury	Wed./Thu./Fri.
WR Rashee Rice	Hamstring	DNP
LT Josh Simmons	Back	LP
CB L’Jarius Sneed	Knee	LP
FB Ben VanSumeren	Thumb	FP
DB Chamarri Conner	Knee	FP
QB Patrick Mahomes	Knee	FP

KEY: DNP = Did not participate | LP = Limited participation | FP = Full participation | NIR = Not injury related

Observations

• L’Jarius Sneed continued his veteran maintenance plan, but Chris Jones (calf) is off the injury report entirely.
• Ben VanSumeren (thumb) is the lone new addition to the injury report for Kansas City. He fully participated in practice.
• As Coach Reid said, Rice was a non-participant, and Simmons was a limited participant. Simmons moved gingerly in video taken during the open portion of practice (see FOX 4’s footage here).
