I guess they figure Don Jackson isn't ready. Or maybe it's the too much speed thing.

Knile Davis 


Oh shit, let's do this!

So a possible 7th round pick two years from now. I wonder how likely it is that the Chiefs get that pick.

A source told ESPN's Adam Schefter that the pick is a conditional seventh-rounder in 2018.

Shields is good but not great, obviously we can use him right about now! Sucks to see him out for a long period but I hope it's not life / career threatening cause the game ain't worth it!

Who else misses the CB tandem with Woodson - Williams?

Can someone educate me a little bit? I'm too lazy to ask Dr. Google right now. How the heck does it take so long to come back from this brain injury? I can't imagine how many players largely played through these things in the past.

I guess what I don't understand is why they decided to wait so long on this. I don't understand concussions so maybe it is just my ignorance as to how long it takes to get better.

Correct me if I am wrong, but if he is designated to return do we not still get to add a replacement to the starting lineup?

It's not something they have nailed down to perfection yet and are trying to be very cautious with, especially with someone who's had multiple concussions.

There is no designated to return anymore. You can simply bring back one player that was placed on IR (that was on your opening day 53) after 8 weeks.
