  • Chiefs' 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 the Ravens, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

    Winchester suffered an AC sprain in his shoulder in Saturday's preseason game against the Lions. Toub appeared optimistic Tuesday that the rest will be enough for Winchester to be ready for the regular-season opener.
