Dwayne Bowe Can Practice In Pads On Tuesday

Dwayne Bowe can return to the KC Chiefs practice field on Monday but without pads. By Tuesday, Bowe will be in pads and completely back with the Chiefs. Chiefs GM Scott Pioli clarified Bowe's practice availability on the TV broadcast of the preseason game against the St. Louis Rams and talked about his arrival back in KC.

"Dwayne came in yesterday and he signed his tender and then right after that the process is you have to get the physical. He took the physical and did the conditioning test.

"He stayed back in Kansas City and worked with our strength and conditioning coach and our trainers so he got a day in yesterday, day in today. Tomorrow is a player's day off so that doesn't count as one of his three days that are now required with the new CBA the three-day acclimation period.

"On Monday, he'll be able to be on the field but not work with the team in full pads. He can do the conditioning, walk through and be in any drills that don't have any contact. No drills that have contact. So that'll be his three days and then he can officially be on the field and in pads on Tuesday."

Those practices will come at the KC Chiefs training complex here in Kansas City now that they've broken camp in St. Joe.
